Numbers Activity for Kids

Count the Snowflakes Math Game Numbers for Kids Montessori Worksheets (4-6 Year Olds)

There was a time a while back when preschool teachers believed that children had no knowledge about math. Hence, the objective to teach children notions about numbers, and the teaching process was focused on that. Consequently, children did not develop their mathematical skills correctly. Nowadays, it is difficult for people to carry out simple mental operations.

Over the years, it was identified and understood that children have different mathematical knowledge. These skills are developed naturally by children through interaction and exploration of the environment. At this point, adults play a significant role since we are the ones who allow and promote child-environment contact.

In their first years of life, it is difficult for children to learn abstract concepts since, at this age, they are entirely sensory. This means that they learn about everything they can see and feel, which can be perceived through the senses. That is why it is fundamental that experiential practices are included for which children can get mathematical concepts in a concrete and manipulative way.

The Montessori learning method seeks to convert math’s complex realities into tangible and straightforward elements to develop a "mathematical mind" in children, capable of analyzing, classifying, and organizing. With it, children can naturally learn abstract concepts through their experience.
