Mathematics 3-6

Montessori mathematics helps children approach mathematical concepts in a concrete, visual, and experiential way, rather than memorizing abstract formulas. Through a scientifically designed system of learning materials, children "touch" quantities, understand the nature of numbers and operations before working with abstract symbols and calculations.

Key mathematical content in Montessori:

  • Numbers and quantities: recognition, matching numbers with quantities, conscious counting.
  • Decimal system: units – tens – hundreds – thousands through visual learning materials.
  • Order and comparison: larger – smaller, more – less, before – after.
  • Basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are introduced from concrete to abstract.
  • Problem-solving: familiarization with word problems, development of analytical thinking.

Suitable age:
Montessori mathematics is for children aged 3–6, with a learning path designed to suit each developmental stage. Children learn at their own pace, without comparison or pressure, yet still ensuring a solid mathematical foundation for subsequent levels of education.

Montessori Math Materials
Montessori math materials are designed to visualize abstract concepts, helping children manipulate with their hands, observe with their eyes, and remember through experience. Each material has a clear objective, a logical sequence of use, and error control capabilities, supporting independent and effective learning for children.
