🍁 Teaching Tip from a Montessori Guide

Pattern matching builds the same visual discrimination children need for reading and early math. When a child notices that two maple leaf patterns must align exactly, they're developing the attention to detail required to distinguish between similar letters like "b" and "d" or to recognize number patterns in math. The Canadian cultural element makes practice meaningful, especially around Canada Day when children see these same symbols in their environment.
