Middle School Numbers Montessori

In the activity, the pre-k and kindergarten students focus on comparing numbers and the abacus for numbers 0–9. Students will also practice writing “greater than” or “less than” to work on their fine motor skills.

This activity helps with number sense and solidifies the number relationships. Also encourages number order, like counting forward and counting backward.

In this activity, we are counting only from 0 to 9, because learning the abacus is only one column of the abacus. Abacus is easy to understand; it promotes tactile learning.

The abacus used has 1 bead on top and 4 beads on the bottom. This activity focuses on the top bead (has a value of 5) and the bottom beads (has a value of 1 for each bead).

All the bottom beads have a value of 1, and the top bead has a value of 5.
