We homeschool using many montessori methods at home for DD 2.5, but I don't think a montessori school would work well, she does not like th step by step, she usally just grasps it all at once, and if something is easy, she wont complete it more then one time, and usually even that frst time she does it halfway through, then stops because she could master it. But she loves the materials. I think it can be very good for gifted kids, but it can't be as rigid step by step as it is in most true montessori schools. They have a step by step, introduce each material in an order way, DD skipped rght through many things, that in a school they would have not let her.
