If you’re a parent or preschool teacher, you might be wondering how to teach young children using Montessori methods. I have two free math downloads today that are perfect for teaching preschoolers. KHT Montessori is letting me host two examples of materials from the KHT math album. The numerals and counters presentation from the math album along with printable numerals and counters cards can be used as a first introduction to Montessori numerals and counters!
Free Numerals and Counters Presentation from KHT Montessori
This is one of the traditional Montessori math presentations. You can download 3 pages from the KHT Montessori math album here.
Free Numerals and Dots Cards from KHT Montessori
Numerals and Dots (Flashcards) printable has a great suggestion for use:
“Put together a basket containing 55 small objects. Have the child place one object on each of the red dots.”
This is a wonderful idea for children who aren’t quite ready to complete the traditional numerals and counters from 1-10. And it could easily be adapted for a theme, using exactly 55 of an object related to your current theme if you use a theme (or to the current season or holiday).
Download the numerals and dots cards here.

I have been eagerly devouring the works of Maria Montessori herself and would love to learn more about applying her methods with our little one and potentially others in our community.
