Description

Maria Montessori developed both the fraction circles, and the metal insets over many years.  She spent hours, observing children, to refine these activities.  Store either of these activities on the stands for the fraction circles and metal insets.

How to present to the Child

  • Train children to respect the activities, and to handle the work with care.
  • The stands are heavy, and the Child must not lift them
  • Children select the inset shape they are attracted to, and carry it on a tray to their work table.

Features of the Stands – Fraction Circles and Metal Insets

There are 2 solid Birch wood stands – 72cm x 19cm x 4.5cm / (28¼” x 7½” x 1¾”)

One of the attractions to the Montessori Method is the extensive use of wood.

We use several types of wood, sourced from renewable sources, in the production of our Montessori Materials.

  • Solid beechwood for cylinder blocks, pink towers, dressing frames and brown stairs.
  • Birchply for trays, holders and animal and botany puzzles.
  • MDF for puzzle maps
  • Pineply for boxes and containers

 

We ensure that the coatings and inks used are not only eco-friendly, but also non-toxic.

Our wooden products are manufactured by responsible partner factories both locally and abroad and ensure that fair labour practices are adopted.

Care instructions for Childrens House Wooden Materials:

  • If wooden products are exposed to liquids, wipe dry as quickly as possible.
  • Most of the surfaces can be wiped with a damp cloth if exposed to dirt or grime.
  • Avoid leaving any of our wooden product in direct sunlight, as it may warp certain woods and/ or the coating may fade over time.

(As) “a child in a Montessori classroom learns to control a pencil by filling in outlines.  An activity that does not (tire) him because he enjoys it.  To make the outline, he uses equipment known as the Metal Insets.  Each inset represents a different geometric shape.  After selecting a figure and tracing it on paper, the child fills in the outline with a colored pencil of his own choosing.”  A Parents’ Guide to the Montessori Classroom by Aline D. Wolf, page 32
