🏡 A Tip from My Classroom
In a Montessori environment, flash cards are a bridge back to real life, not a drill. Name the real refrigerator in your kitchen first, then offer the card as a way to revisit the word later. Once the names feel secure, ask what each object does: "What do we keep in the refrigerator?" A simple naming lesson becomes a conversation about purpose and care of the home.
