Description

This material is part of the Early Childhood Montessori language arts curriculum. Locating a specific classroom material in the environment that matches its picture allows children to utilize many aspects of visual discrimination. They must first recall where the material is located and understand spatial relationships to navigate their physical space. This activity also helps develop children’s vocabulary and memory. Children also develop visual figure ground with this activity, scanning the room to find the correct material to match the picture.
