Description
This material is part of the Elementary Montessori geography curriculum. Children engage in studying each continent and their countries, in association with their flags. Children transition from the flags on a stand to the nomenclature cards, which is a form of transition from a concrete to a more abstract approach. Flags of the World Complete Set consists of 219 three-part card sets. Each card includes a map of the continent with the country highlighted that corresponds to the flag depicted. Black outlined masters are included.
