Description
This material is part of a series of nomenclature cards supporting the Montessori biology curriculum for elementary learners. Children in primary level learned the anatomical nomenclature. In elementary level, children revisit the nomenclature more in depth. The material consists of 78 three-part cards, one booklet, and three wallcharts. The three-part nomenclature cards introduce children to the various characteristics and functions of the human digestive system. The nomenclature cards contain a description, a label, and a picture card for matching purposes. There are three wallcharts representing all the parts together. The booklets serve as control for error for the nomenclature matching work.
