The Montessori ApproachUsing sensory materials in the classroom
![Page 30: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Our Sensory Centers…..
Sound Boxes Shake the boxes and
listen to the sounds they make.
Match the sounds and place them as a pair on the tray
Check your answers by flipping over the boxes to match the colors.
Texture Feeling Explore the textures of
the materials How do they feel? What could they be used
for? Do any feel the same?
Match them! Classify or order them by
texture or color. Try using a blindfold to
match the textures.

recognize and compare sounds
Promotes self confidence and independence
Requires focus and concentration
Texture Feeling teaches students to
identify and compare textures
Increases vocabulary used to describe what they feel (rough, smooth)

The Montessori ApproachGuide to using clay in the classroom
![Page 37: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Why Clay? Helps children develop control and
coordination through handling Helps develop fine motor skills and
muscles Pre-Cursor for developing skills for
cutting. Develops appropriate hand and finger control and builds appropriate hand muscles
![Page 38: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Children learn that every material has a purpose, and are able to explore that material within a controlled environment."It was not the method which produced the great changes in the children, so much as it was the great changes in the children which produced the method." —Maria Montessori
![Page 39: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
“Working Freely Within Limits”
Children determine a goal or objective for working with the material
Children explore and create while building fine motor muscle control
Teacher provides clay materials and environment necessary for children to obtain their goal.
![Page 40: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Create an animal or bug observed
Learn geographic structures through creating model geographic land plots
Creating and exploring shapes
Possible ActivitiesMontessori approach to clay use at home and in the classroom
![Page 41: Montessori Presentation](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061420/554c47eeb4c9056b648b54c6/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
At our Clay Center…Look at the pictures of different animals (in a real Montessori classroom, we would have actual bugs instead of pictures).
Then learn through creating!
This demonstrates use of a science lesson learning about bugs through Montessori approach
