Working hard

Here are a few pictures of what the children were up to the few weeks leading to xmas...


a bit of pre-writing....

 
 
 
A bit of maths ...

Montessori Cards & Counters

Montessori spindle box




Shapes


introduction to halves, quarters and thirds

 


Sensorial activities....





Waldorf tower.. using the circle first on their own, sorting them out by size

then using the rectangles alone, sorting them by length

 
all together now
 
 

more soring exercises by colour and shape






shape and colour again while developing fine motor skills

associating colour to matching picture

 
Developing fine motor skills with the Practical Life exercises...
 

jigsaws are great for little fingers but also develop problem solving skills, concentration, hand eye coordination etc..

as you can see, we are using the Montessori teen beads for the sole purpose of refining fine motor skills (no number, no counting). the hooking up movement is a great exercise for little ones ....
