Montessori: Number Work

This book follows the Montessori method by introducing the numbers 1 to 10 first as quantities to count before showing them as numerals.

There are currently no other books in the children's market called "Montessori".; There are an estimated 7,000 certified Montessori schools worldwide and numerous more that use the name and select tenets.; While counting board books are the mainstay of children's concept shelves, none teach quantity before numeral, with traceable numbers and number rod imagery.; Features cumulative tabs emulating the growing number rod and a gritty sandpaper finish for tactile tracing.

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

These unique board books bring the popular Montessori pedagogy to trade book form for the first time. Using materials and methods common to Montessori classrooms, these interactive board books immerse young children in an aesthetically rich learning experience, while providing parents and caregivers with carefully crafted language to encourage understanding.

This book follows the Montessori method by introducing the numbers 1 to 10 first as quantities to count before showing them as numerals. Cumulative red and blue tabs based on the counting rods found in Montessori classrooms help readers conceptualise quantities. Groupings of beautifully stylised illustrations provide objects to count before readers encounter textured numerals to trace with their fingers.
