Rosemary Simpson founded Dover Montessori Country Day School [DMCDS] more than forty years ago. The school is licensed for daycare and is a certified A.M.I. school using the Association Montessori Iinternationale method of instruction. The Montessori curriculum for ages 2 ½ - 6 consists of eight subject areas for which developmentally appropriate materials have been specifically designed. Mastery of these eight areas provides a child with keys to later academic and social success. While there are innumerable subjects and materials that might have some "learning" value for the young child, it is these which allow the child to progress most rapidly because of their clarity, simplicity, flexibility, and ability to integrate a child’s experience. Each month our material centers on a particular theme.
