“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.
