Dear Parent, This is a different kind of counting book. It is based on a Montessori way of teaching that has been successful for over a century: focusing on the concrete before the abstract. For example, your child needs to be familiar with what three objects feel like and look like before learning the symbol “3.” Each number in this book is presented: * as a quantity to count * with a texture to trace * with its name and a corresponding number rod to provide context Through listening, answering, and tracing on every page, your child will acquire invaluable mathematical skills — the Montessori way.
