Classic "Yellow Area Material" from Montessori Elementary, helps teach concept of area as measured by identical squares on rectangle. Once that is mastered, this material shows how other shapes with equivalent areas can be converted into rectangles, eventually leading to algebraic notation (A = BH, A = BH/2). RectangleParallelogramRight TriangleAcute TriangleObtuse triangles. Print BW on cardstock (use yellow paper for classic look), or glue paper to cardboard. Cut along dashed lines (NOT solid

Learn the Pythagorean Theorem with hands-on activities! No numbers on the page until the children have discovered the key ideas for themselves. 1. Start with the first pages, which give a qualitative overview. Taking apart the 2 squares built off of 2 sides, you find that you can fit them perfectly in the space of one square made from the hypotenuse! (and vice-versa) 2. Then, discover your first Pythagorean triplet and the quantitative calculation. The areas of the squares on the sides (made up

These classic Montessori Elementary lesson materials build on prior work with equivalent rectangles and other shapes, and can be used to start work with algebraic notation. HexagonRhombusMultiple ways to create equivalent rectangles with each shape.Math is far better learned with the hands than numbers on a page!Black outline drawing for cheap printing. Print on cardstock, or glue paper to matte/cardboard. Cut along dashed lines.

Classic Montessori Elementary lessons, help teach relationships between radius, circumference, and area using equivalent circles and rectangle. Also introduces concept and origin of Pi, eventually leading to algebraic notation. Equivalent circles, one cut into pieces to lay out as equivalent rectangle with length equal to the circumference and height equal to pie. Whole equivalent rectangle to compare to cut-up circle.Algebraic cutouts for labeling after initial concept is understood.Math is

Print on cardstock and cut out separate labels to introduce/practice algebra and word problems with upper elementary (/middle school) students. Includes 5 practice problems involving velocity and interest rates (separately). Introduce with velocity sample problem, then bring down the "what is wanted" and "what is known" cards. Fill in numbers on the blank labels and place with the appropriate variable (velocity/distance/time) and rate (miles/hours/mpg). Then solve the problem with golden bead m
