I don't know if mine was a Montessori type or not really. The numbers and tiles were just laying there for kids to mess around with, not really used for one thing in particular. I'm not sure if that goes with or against the teaching style of a Montessori place of learning.
I sent my son, the one that can read, to Montessori and he absolutely hated it.
They, or at least the one I sent him to, were so rigid, elitist and demanding I pulled him out after a year even though I had to eat a $2K deposit.
They told us to stop reading to him and basically stifle his learning. He got to a point where he hated going so we put him in a more normal pre-school. Now he loves going again. Some of his former classmates have actually left too complaining about the same things. The thing I hated the most about that Montessori was the principal/owner. She was so condescending and elitist it was disgusting.

Im sure just like any place it depends on the faculty. The school my g/f teaches at doesnt sound anything like the one your child went to. Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Overall I think its a great way for kids to learn.
PS: i'm pretty sure it was montessori, w/ the mats on the ground below the work and that bar counting is almost identical to the one at her school.

It's not exactly simple and if somehow you're too dense to notice, I didn't actually think I was a genius
What if the kid in the rainbow shirt did it and you just came along and started smiling like a nutjob?

I believe those were shrinky-dinks, as well as "Smith's Theory of Relativity" whilst working at the patent office.
