🌲 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide
Vocabulary cards work best when connected to real experiences. If possible, introduce these cards before a camping trip, then bring them along so children can match the cards to actual equipment. "Find the real lantern that matches this card" turns abstract vocabulary into concrete, meaningful learning. Even without camping, create an indoor "camping corner" where children use flashcards to set up pretend campsites, reinforcing vocabulary through play.
