Overview
Exploration of Volume – From Children’s House through Elementary is part of our free Montessori Parent Talks for both current parents and those interested in learning more about our school.
This in-person talk, held at the Maria Montessori School – Bayswater, will explain and demonstrate through the use of Montessori materials, how children journey from tactile explorations and definitions of volume using unit cubes, to classifying and transforming diverse solids into equivalent rectangular forms. This culminates in them discovering the 3:1 relationship between prisms and pyramids through hands-on experiments with sand or water; turning sensorial discovery into mathematical understanding.
