Hands On Map Skills: Cross Curricular Project to Teach Map Skills (Grades 2-4)

Tired of using worksheets to teach map skills? I used worksheets for years but something didn't feel right. I knew my students weren't learning map skills deeply when I was teaching this way.

In this project students use real maps to study their important features, all while refining their map skills. Then they get the chance to put all of this kno

Money Wheel- Coin Math with Montessori Bead Bars: Pennies to Half Dollars

This unique "wheel" material is one that you will not find anywhere else.

I commissioned a wood prototype, which I used in my classroom for many years. It was one of the most popular materials in my classroom, and it has been amazing to see the speed at which students gain not only comfort with coins, but also skills in
