How to Use Montessori 3-Part Cards
Montessori 3-part cards are a hands-on learning tool designed to build vocabulary, reading skills, and classification. They consist of:
Picture card (image only)
Word label (word only)
Control card (image + word together)
Steps to use them:
Introduce the Cards – Lay out the control cards (image + word) and name each one clearly for the child.
Matching Activity – Invite the child to match the picture-only cards to the correct control cards.
Word Recognition – Next, have the child match the word labels to the control cards.
Independent Practice – Children can self-correct by checking their matches against the control cards.
Extensions – Use the cards for sorting (e.g., by type of animal, habitat) or as prompts for storytelling and further research.
This step-by-step approach encourages independence, reinforces language skills, and makes learning both visual and interactive.
