* Montessori environments are furnished with specifically designed learning material and apparatus that promote active learning that brings out the child's spontaneous curiosity, discoveries and explorations. * Montessori environments aid the mental, physical, and social-emotional development of the child by promoting independence, concentration, problem-solving abilities and competence in basic skills. * Montessori classrooms group children in multi-age clusters called "sensitive periods", periods when the child shows unusual capabilities in acquiring particular skills. A modern name for this phenomenon might be "formative periods", a period in which the child is psychologically attuned to learn or acquire given ideas or skills more easily that at any other period.
