Montessori Language Materials: How Children Learn to Read and Write Naturally

This complete Montessori Green Series card set includes 90 laminated picture cards and 90 matching phonogram word cards.

The Green Series follows the Pink and Blue Series and helps the child move from reading simple phonetic words to recognizing common phonograms within familiar words. Each word card highlights the target phonogram in red, making the spelling pattern clear and easy to notice.

The set includes 15 phonogram groups: ea, oa, o-e, sh, ar, i-e, a-e, ch, ee, silent e, or, ai, ir, er, and u-e.

Children may match each picture card with its word card, identify the highlighted phonogram, build words with the Movable Alphabet, sort cards by spelling pattern, and gradually read the word cards independently.

This exclusive Montessori set includes 15 green wooden boxes with lids and two complete sets of phonogram stickers for both boxes and lids. Each box measures 9.0 cm x 9.0 cm x 2.1 cm, perfectly sized for Montessori language materials and phonogram cards.

These durable and beautifully crafted boxes help children organize and classify language materials while maintaining an orderly and inviting Montessori environment. The smooth wooden finish and rich green color make the set both functional and aesthetically pleasing on classroom shelves.

In order to maintain the child’s interest in reading in a purposeful way, Maria Montessori introduced grammar at the phonetic reading stage. Each time a new part of speech is introduced, it is done through playing a lively game with children!

Farm Game 1 – Phonetic is specifically designed to support children in the early Montessori language curriculum, helping them identify parts of speech through play and hands-on interaction.

Farm Game 2 – With Adverb is the next step after Farm Game 1 – Phonetic. While the first Farm Game uses simple phonetic words, this material introduces more advanced vocabulary that is no longer limited to simple phonetic patterns and adds the function of the adverb.

Children combine articles, adjectives, nouns, verbs, and adverbs to build and read complete sentences. Through this engaging Montessori grammar game, they expand their vocabulary, strengthen reading skills, and develop a deeper understanding of how words work together in a sentence.

Purpose: To extend the child’s interest in reading and informally, to introduce him to the first rule of forming the plural by adding the letter “s” to the singular.

Material: Black cardboard box containing two packs of black noun cards with two white heading cards.

21 miniature objects to correspond with the word on noun cards.

Box measures: 3.5 x 3.5 x 1.5 inches.
