Montessori Online Work Period - Geography (Kindergarten)

Welcome to our Montessori Geography class, where young explorers embark on a journey to discover the wonders of our world. This class is designed to give children a comprehensive understanding of geography through hands-on activities, interactive lessons, and engaging materials. Our goal is to foster a deep appreciation for the diversity of our planet and the various cultures that inhabit it.

We are proud to be the first and only accredited Montessori school on the Outschool platform, featuring certified teachers who bring their expertise from our brick-and-mortar school located in Ontario, Canada.

In this class, children will learn about the fundamental concepts of geography through the Montessori method.  By the end of the course, students will have a well-rounded understanding of the world and its many facets.


Topics Covered

Globe: We will begin by introducing the globe, helping children understand the Earth's shape and the concept of continents. This foundational knowledge will set the stage for more detailed geographical studies.

Hemispheres: Students will learn about the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, including the equator, and how the division affects climate and seasons.

Characteristics of Different Countries: We will explore various countries, focusing on their unique characteristics such as animals, lifestyle, food, and culture. This topic will broaden students' horizons and cultivate an appreciation for global diversity.

The Three Elements: Lessons will cover land, water, and air, helping children understand the basic elements that make up our planet. We will discuss how these elements interact and their importance to life on Earth.

Land and Water Forms: Children will learn about different landforms (mountains, valleys, islands) and water forms (lakes, rivers, oceans) through hands-on activities and visual aids.

Flags: We will study the flags of various countries, helping children recognize and associate them with their respective nations. This activity will also introduce the concept of national identity and symbolism.


Class Structure

Each session will start with a brief lecture on the day's topic, providing a solid foundation of knowledge. The teacher will then demonstrate the materials needed for the activity or how to complete the worksheet. Children will have the opportunity to try the activity independently, while the teacher observes and provides real-time feedback. This hands-on approach allows children to learn through experience while receiving the support they need to succeed.

Our teaching style is fun, engaging, and productive. We believe that learning should be an enjoyable experience that stimulates curiosity and a love for discovery. By creating a positive and supportive atmosphere, we aim to keep students motivated and eager to participate.

Children will have ample opportunities to interact with the teacher and their peers throughout the class. The small group setting ensures that each child receives personalized attention and has the chance to actively participate in all activities. We incorporate a variety of teaching methods, including interactive games, discussions, slides, and occasional video clips, to make lessons dynamic and relatable.


Join us in the Montessori Geography class, where we help children develop a deeper understanding of the world around them. Through engaging activities and a supportive learning environment, we set the stage for lifelong curiosity and a profound appreciation for the diversity of our planet.
