concrete materials to represent all types of quantities, after she observed that the child
who becomes interested in counting likes to touch or move the items as he
enumerates them. in a Montessori environment, a child not only sees the symbol for 1,
1000 or 1/2, he can also hold each of the corresponding quantities in his hand. Later,
by combining this equipment, separating it, sharing it, counting it, and comparing it, he
can demonstrate to himself the basic operations of arithmetic. This activity gives him
the satisfaction of learning by discovery rather than by being told. Eventually he
develops an early enthusiasm for the world of numbers.” (A Parent’s Guide to the
Montessori Classroom, Aline D. Wolf, p. 39).
“There are two characteristics of the math area and materials that. . .are perhaps the
most important differences between the Montessori math curriculum and other
manipulative approaches….the depth and complexity of the materials, and
Montessori’s concept of abstraction vs. memorization. The indirect preparation and the
presentations lead the child to discover important facts, derive formulae, and so on.
Montessori describes the process of abstraction in mathematics as an important goal
of her math curriculum. By this, she meant that concepts, such as area, and formulae,
such as the one for the area of a rectangle, could be either memorized by the child, at
the teachers urging, or abstracted by the child herself, from experiences with
materials, guided by the teacher. This process of abstraction is an “Ah-ha!” experience
for the child. The concept, formula, or algorithm is individually discovered by the
child. The learning is truly the child’s own. Montessori describes this as a creative act,
even though these abstractions are not the first: a child is creative who discovers the
formulae, even though it is already known to mathematics.” fl’ he Montessori
Controversy, John Chattin-McNichols, pp. 97-115).
