🧮 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide
Themed math materials keep children engaged during seasonal units while building genuine computational skills. Easter addition cards make abstract equations concrete—when children count five Easter eggs plus three more eggs, they're using visual models to understand addition before memorizing facts. This progression from concrete counters to abstract numbers builds deeper number sense than flashcard drills alone. Seasonal math maintains high interest without sacrificing mathematical rigor.
