Developing the Visual Sense

The Montessori schools help the children to develop the visual sense of the children in terms of the dimensions and colours by introducing the children with different kinds of activities. Some of them are given below, which are practiced at Kid Advance Montessori:

Geometric Cards with Tray: It consists of a wooden cabinet along with six drawers and a presentation tray. This activity is generally used to teach the child different forms of the shapes and sizes such as different types of quadrilaterals, triangles, curved figures and polygons.

Geometric Solid Bases withBox: It consists of different geometrical solids such as triangular prism, rectangular prism, cone, cube, cylinder, sphere, triangular pyramid, square pyramid, an ovoid and an ellipsoid. The main purpose behind performing this activity is to refine the stereognostic sense of the students and to them aware of the different types of the solid shapes and sizes that surrounds him. This is for students of above 3 ½ years of age.

Brown Stairs: These are ten brown prisms of the same length but they are of different heights. This activity gives the children an idea about the different thickness and thinness of the varied shapes and sizes of the materials. It also helps in other ways such as their voluntary movement, gripping the materials by hand and in the preparation of the mathematics on the whole. This activity is carried out for students of 3 to 3 ½ years of age.

Colour Tablets in the 1^st, 2^nd and the 3^rd Box: This game help the child to introduce him to the world of colours. The children can then easily discriminate between different types of colours.
