About this event

Sensorial Development Montessori sensorial materials are designed to isolate and refine specific qualities—such as size, shape, texture, color, sound, and weight—supporting the child’s ability to observe, compare, and categorize their environment with increasing precision. Through hands-on, repetitive exploration, children develop discrimination of the senses, laying a foundation for later mathematical thinking, language development, and abstract reasoning. Sensorial work supports cognitive organization by helping the child make sense of the world through ordered, meaningful experiences.

Storytime Chess

Wed, May 13 · 4:00 PM

Casa Primary

Storytime Chess Storytime Chess at Casa Primary is a playful, story-led introduction to the world of chess, where imagination and strategy meet. Guided by Julia R., a polyglot educator fluent in 9 languages including Italian, French, German, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish and more with a background in European Cultural Studies and Communication Science, children are invited into the game through narrative, characters, and creative exploration. Each session weaves storytelling with foundational chess concepts, helping children understand how pieces move, think ahead, and approach the board with curiosity rather than pressure. Through this gentle, engaging approach, children begin to develop focus, patience, and early strategic thinking. Rooted in Julia’s belief that chess is “mindfulness in motion,” the class supports not only cognitive growth, but confidence, presence, and a sense of enjoyment in learning—meeting each child with warmth, imagination, and care.

Montessori Work Cycle

Montessori Work Cycle The Montessori Work Cycle at Casa Primary is an uninterrupted period of focused work within a carefully prepared environment. During this time, children are thoughtfully introduced to materials across foundational areas—such as early literacy, math, and practical life—through demonstration by our Guides (certified teachers). Once introduced, children are given the space to choose their work and deepen their engagement over time. This uninterrupted rhythm allows for concentration to build naturally, supporting the development of independence, coordination, and early academic readiness. Structured with intention, the Work Cycle fosters confidence, problem-solving, and a sense of ownership in learning—creating the conditions for meaningful skill development and an innate love for learning at each stage.

Infant Speech Development [MS, CCC-SLP/TSSLD]

Thu, May 14 · 11:30 AM

Casa Primary

Infant Speech & Language Development A guided class for infants and caregivers led by a fully licensed Speech-Language Pathologist from Downtown Kids Therapy. This session focuses on early communication development through responsive interaction, sound play, and intentional engagement. Caregivers are supported in understanding how language begins—through eye contact, gestures, babbling, and shared attention—long before words emerge. Using developmentally appropriate techniques, Caitlin gently guides both infants and caregivers through simple, effective ways to support speech and language growth at home. The class incorporates songs, repetition, facial expression, and play-based interaction to encourage connection, imitation, and early sound production. This is a calm, supportive environment where caregivers gain practical tools, and infants are given space to explore communication at their own pace. Assisted by our Guides.
