CASA and Toddler Curriculum - ABC Montessori Academy Mississauga

Our CASA and Toddler curriculum has been developed over the past 27 years and is ever evolving to suit the needs of our students.

We believe that our curriculum is one of the most comprehensive and challenging available.

Our teachers take this curriculum and use a variety of teaching methods and resources to present it to the students. Through the use of Montessori materials as well as work books, work sheets, readers and the unlimited resources available on the internet, our curriculum comes to life.
