Montessori Metal Inset Labels for Free

By Jessica Renee Montessori - JRMontessori

Looking for ways to keep your Montessori classroom organized? Teachers love these Metal Inset labels. Place them on the shelves so that the insets are returned in a particular order. Your Lower Elementary students can also check the spelling of the Metal Inset shapes independently or use the labels to match to the shapes when they are first learning. Some teachers keep them together on one page and used it as a reference poster.

Here are some additional details to help you decide if this resource is right for you:

  • You get ten labels in total (circle, square, triangle, rectangle, pentagon, oval, ellipse, trapezoid, quatrefoil, and curvilinear triangle).
  • The labels are designed to match the colors of the traditional Montessori Metal Insets (i.e. pink and blue).
