Our journey into Montessori Language...Pink series

 So here's our little Montessori language setup.  On top we have my DIY sandpaper letters on the right, the alphabet bags in the middle, the moveable alphabet on the left with my DIY grammar symbols (future blog) on top.  

Below is Tot's pink series.  Montessori starts off with the pink series, moves into blue series, then into green.  I have only printed out and set up the pink series so far...

There are many good sites where you can buy pink series materials.  After debating, I just printed off these free ones from here.  I found these pink and blue boxes on clearance at Walmart for $.25!!  Now just to find some green ones...

Tot has been doing great with these.  He loves the little objects that we use.  I took some out of our alphabet bags and collected a few others from wherever I could think of...hobby lobby had some doll house items that worked well.  

We've finished level 1 and 2 and are moving on with level 3...

Here's his 'a' work...

 ..laying out his objects...

He sounds them out and spells them with the moveable alphabet.
 
*I love his little mouth really sounding out each sound!
 
SO proud!!!
 Our 'e' work...
 *I LOVE this moveable alphabet and SO recommend it...it's great for so many reasons.

His 'i' work...
 "o" work..

 The 'mop' from hobby lobby was such a hit...


He didn't want to stop playing with it and had some extra fun that day with his objects.
 
only 3 I could dig up for 'u' work...
 
Gramma enjoying his 'mixed vowel' box.
 
 Onto level 2...
Here he lines up the objects again, but now has the words written which he has to read and match up.



I didn't take pictures of them all - just enough to get the idea.

Level 3 has all new pictures and we're spelling them out...



I'm so proud of him!  Sorry for the picture overload.  I'm sure as we go on I won't be so detailed!!  

Blessings!
