Xander met conjunctions last week. We did a few simple things to make our introduction.
The idea for this object box came from Montessori for Everyone. There are many other presentations for conjunctions, and we will explore them as we move forward but this is how we started.
Our object box contains sets of objects with printed cards for each, and sentence starter cards for later.
This is a small bead storage container that I used to hold the symbols, "and" cards, period cards, and comma cards.
Reading the definition card and checking out the symbol
This is a card of sentence examples, that I prepared for Xander to read.

Xander made a conjunction booklet.

ReplyDeleteHow do you store all this? Box, tray, or something else?
Thank you
Thank you:))
DeleteEverything in the first picture fits into the clear box with a lid that has the conjunction symbol and word. I keep a grammar farm animal tray, and just pulled the animals we wanted to use. The words are from our grammar farm words tray (I will add in a link to that above). The symbols are in our grammar symbol box as are the 3 part cards. As we are doing the exercises I sometimes get on a roll start pulling other things out as we go:))
I love this set up. I'm keeping it in mind for when we get to grammar. I also shared it on the Montessori MOMents Facebook page: facebook.com/MontessoriMOMents.
