Beyond Golden Beads Workshop

This workshop is designed to revisit the four operations with golden beads, stamp game and bead frames. We will also review math charts, snake game, addition and subtraction strips boards, multiplication and division boards and memorization material.
​It's designed for teachers familiar with Montessori math, but who may just need a refresher. This full-day event covers a general review of upper level Montessori Children’s House mathematics (might still be a great opportunity for some Lower Elementary teachers as well).
