This is an amazing series of Math Story books introducing different math concepts in really fun story format. Daddy read Angleland to Xander. To accompany this, I added in our Montessori Lucite Fractions Box - Montessori Outlet, and Montessori Protractor - Kidadvance (comes in a set of two circles-one protractor for fraction insets, and one that shows the conversion of a fraction to a decimal).

This protractor is wonderful!! This fraction box is a tight fit for the protractor, and in fact it is actually used with the fraction (puzzle) circles - for our "bedtime" use it was easier to bring this box, and it worked well regardless.

After reading and chatting about the book. Daddy made a series of angle requests for Xander to retrieve from the box. He requested 360, 180, and 90 degree angles to start. He requested "obtuse" and "acute" angled pieces.

Checking...

He was asked to retrieve angles in word problems for example can you find an angle that is more than 90 but less than 180 degrees?

Daddy asked Xander to do some estimation, and comparative work.

see how close he was

Asking Xander to find the angle of Pac Man's mouth 😃

Xander was very intrigued by this.

Then they had fun with directions in "angles"... for Xander to navigate his way out of the room, and through the hall. Turn 90 degrees right, and so forth.

What a great bedtime story...

Welcome!

Hi there! I'm the author and creator of Making Montessori Ours. We are a busy home learning family sharing our favourite learning resources, road trips and travel, crafty fun, home diy projects, sewing, and tons more! I am not as active in posting about our children as they have grown, and their interests are their own. When they give permission I shall create posts that include them. Our interests as a family continue to grow, and we share our news and daily updates on Facebook and Instagram, if you wish to catch up with us there please do! As requested I will continue to develop materials and products for our shops, as I love the creative process. There are so many things that our children loved that I would love to share. For those who have been with us for many years we thank you! For those who are new to us we welcome you! In the spirit of transparency ~ We are an amazon affiliate.
