About the store
Good day, everyone! To e-mail me directly: secondstar2therite@comcast.net. After receiving my ECE from Northern Virginia Community College, I attended the Association Montessori Internationale training in Palo Alto, California. This course was given by Dr. Lena Wikramaratne. Miss Lena was trained and worked beside Dr. Montessori and her son, Mario, while Dr. Montessori was in India. I retired in May, 2017, after almost 40 years as a Primary guide. I have always enjoyed making materials , so TPT was a good fit for me. Sadly, as I get older, I find that I cannot produce as much as I used to, but I still think of something new occasionally. Take the time to enjoy your students as time passes way too quickly! Blessings, Mary

Montessori Tens Board Extension Game

Tens Board Extension GameI made this material many years ago for a little girl who just could NOT get that jump nor a good flow to counting. And she was tired of the Tens Boards.

So if you need help for students who could benefit from further practice with those pesky jumps from one set of tens to the next while counting to 100, this will help. The children will count and match sets of gold bead cards with their numerals. Comple

Awards & shining teacher moments

I'm most proud of the years I spent in my beautiful Montessori Children's House of Aloha in Oregon. I purchased a house built in the 1950's that had beautiful, low windows and a french door that led to an enormous, natural backyard with an enormous oak tree, wooden deck, garden and invitations to play at the back of the yard. So many children passed through those doors, all grown up now. So many beautiful memories!
