Homeschool Craft and Art Craft Activities
1-Cards and Counters Montessori
Montessori cards and counters activity for homeschool
So, I started making this work called ”cards and counters”.This is one of the preliminary works that helps prompt concrete understanding of numbers and quantity.
Anyways,my thumb started to hurt after making two,which made me realize I have several students who could finish them beautifully.By doing so I hope these students will build a stronger connection to this work.Once on the shelf,these cards and counters will eventually loose their novelty,but that’s okay because they will have served their purpose (and it buys me some time to make a new ones).
2-Montessori Plant Structure

Plant structure with the my daughter and my student this morning.We decided to be creative in our science lesson and find things around the house that we could use to display plant structure.Really helped with their learning.
3-Montessori Sweeping Activity
Black stones sweeping activity
This page has black sweeping activity for my daughter.
Materials:
- Hand brush
- Plastic hand shovel
- Black stones
- Yellow band
-
First of all, the black stones in the container are poured with a nice spread and then a band is attached and the center point is determined. Then the material which is scattered to this center point is swept and the material transferred from the center is transferred. Then the material used is removed and placed in the place of the tray. a factor.

This activity is an activity that contributes to the development of hand eye coordination as well as daily life skills. Children who can not use their hands and fingers are difficult to fulfill their daily life skills. School life is also affected negatively and it is difficult to write. The lack of self-confidence caused by academic failure negatively affects the child’s social development.
- In the Montessori system, activities under the name of daily life skills are very interesting for children and at the same time filled with studies that will form the basis of their physical and mental activities at an advanced age. In short, the skills of daily life will contribute to the development of the child in a safe environment, The use of spoons, knives, forks, and other materials designed to fit the physical structure of the child supports proper attention to the child’s ability to hold the pencil properly and to transfer water or legumes from the container to the container.
- I did not intervene because my daughter wanted to continue the activity by removing the tape here. We do not intervene unless there is a dangerous situation for our children to work in exertions.
