Riggs Method

The Riggs Method, a Montessori assessment strategy for literacy, emphasizes a systematic and phonics-based approach to reading and writing. This method carefully evaluates a child’s ability to decode and encode language through structured lessons and assessments. It places a strong emphasis on the mastery of phonetic rules and word analysis, ensuring that students develop a solid foundation in reading and spelling.

Slossen Oral Reading

Slossen Oral Reading, in the Montessori context, focuses on assessing a child’s literacy skills through oral fluency and comprehension. This approach involves listening to the student read aloud, evaluating their pronunciation, intonation, and comprehension of the text. By observing a child’s ability to read fluently and understand the material, educators gain insight into their reading proficiency.

Brigance Test

The Brigance Test is a comprehensive Montessori assessment tool used to gauge a child’s literacy skills across various domains, including reading and language development. It assesses a child’s abilities in phonemic awareness, vocabulary, and comprehension, offering a holistic view of their literacy progress. By measuring a wide range of literacy skills, the Brigance Test helps educators tailor their instruction to meet each student’s specific needs, promoting a well-rounded literacy education.

Alefiya from Toronto

“The online sessions have been a great way to not only keep Idris connected to his teacher but also ensure that he’s not losing what he’s already learned and is able to learn new things as well. As working parents we were so happy and delighted to have these sessions because we were worried we weren’t able to do enough for him. Every little bit helps and we are really grateful for it!”

Sofia from Switzerland

I work in education and I am passionate about Montessori style even if I am also open to other pedagogies. I have done an exhaustive search to find some tailored programs for my son, considering that I would be working from home and would like to give him fun learning experiences and activities, but none matched my expectations until I found MFMS. We joined the virtual program when Bjorn was 14 months and since then I have been a great fan to the programs but in particular to the tailored activities and care provided by the team and educators. He is now 32 months and we plan to continue with the virtual MFMS in a long term.

Security & Technology All parent communication will be done through the Hi Mama app or email. We will be utilizing Zoom’s in-meeting security capabilities ensuring that all virtual classrooms are secure, encrypted, locked, and password-protected. Families are screened for security compliance each day in our virtual office prior to joining our virtual sessions.

Fee Details

Fee payment is due on the first of every month (via e-transfer, Pre-Authorized Debit, Visa, MasterCard) before attending scheduled classes.

Changes or cancellations must be received in writing 30 days prior to the change.

Once class is scheduled, there are no refunds or rescheduling.

No deposits required!

How Involved Do I Need To Be?

In our experience, most children over the age of three require very little assistance, provided the daily materials are ready for their use at the start of class.

Gathering these materials should take no longer than 5 minutes/day.

Do You Record The Classes?

No. We have a strict safety policy to not record our children, which aligns with our philosophy that we apply to our brick and mortar school. If we were to record, we would first get the expressed consent from all parents.

Is Your School Accredited?

MFMS Online is validated by the Ministry of Education in the Province of Ontario, Canada to provide a private school education for children K-8. Our Ontario Board School Identification Number (BSID) is 668664. The Montessori philosophy is a globally recognized learning methodology.

Our brick and mortar school is a licensed childcare center in the province of Ontario. Our Virtual Toddler and Casa programs follow the same philosophy and curriculum as our brick and mortar school does.

We recommend you check with your local school board authority as to whether our program will be recognized by them (we can help you with this).

What Are The Classroom Sizes?

We believe in small classroom sizes. All of our virtual classrooms have a maximum capacity of 12 students. In our experience, anything above this compromises the quality of education.

Will My Child Pay Attention?

95% of our enrolment will sit on their own after a few practice trials. This is why we offer a free two day trial for your child to practice taking part in our program. Once your child learns how to navigate Zoom, we have seen that most children sit on their own through the whole program, provided they have all the materials ready at the start of each class.
