“The child’s mind is not prepared for number ‘by certain
preliminary ideas’ given in haste by the teacher, but has
been prepared for it by a process of information, by a
slow building up of itself” Maria Montessori, 1914
Although the Montessori mathematical materials look
simple but they are very effective. By working with
them children can identify mathematical relations and
laws and discover for themselves the rules governing
them.
