Mathmatics in Montessori:
Every child and adult needs to know and understand math. It is an integral part of our everyday life. We count money, we measure, we cook, we sort things, we may use mathematics tools, etc…
Your child learns math everyday while they are at school but research shows that families are essential part of this process. How can you make math part of your family’s life?
- Talk about Math. Talk about why it is important. Keep the conversation positive and avoid sharing any of your dislike or struggles with math.
- Know what your child is studying in math. Talk with your child. Talk with your teachers and know the standards regardless of whether you have a preschool age child or in High school.
- Encourage your child to use math tools. Math , math tools, and technology are great partners whether it is a calculator, compass, computer, ruler, etc. Doing tasks that involve math help children prepare for the future.
- Make math an everyday part of your family. Puzzles, board games, making shopping budgets, cooking, home repairs all are opportunities to engage your child in math.
- Notice Math in the World. Point it out. Show they the importance in math in the world around them. How does math fit within your job, sports, music, art, etc.
