The Math Environment in a Montessori ClassroomDecember 20, 2008 by Miss Norma | No comments

The math environment is one of the most inviting areas of the classrooms. The beads and counters call the childrens attention. This area is so enticing! When I was going through my training I was so amazed with the math materials. Every presentation they gave me made me want to learn more and more. It gave me an opportunity to learn and understand some of the things I did not understand when I was learning in the classroom. I got to see and understand the logic of certain math theories.

All the math materials are concrete and/or clear for the children to understand. The presentations have smooth transition from one to another and the children are able to work with different materials that teach different skills at the same time. The children are able to work independently and be successful.

  • i love montessori

    • This blog is about me as a Montessori mom, believer and follower. I want to inspire others to believe in what I experience everyday in my classroom, children learning in a peaceful and happy environment. Children learning at their own pace, helping and guiding each other.

      I started this blog because I want to share my views and experiences as a mom and a devoted Montessori teacher. I recently finished the primary certification with American Montessori Society (AMS). I really enjoyed this experience even though at times it seems as if I was never going to finish. It was lot of work and up and downs for me. I am extremely happy I did it
