Although there are many wondrous ways to classify leaves - according to shape, edges, arrangement, etc. - the simplest is by the relationship of length to width.
Use this printable to encourage your children to measure, divide, judge, evaluate and classify different kinds of leaves.
This is an excellent extension for the Montessori leaf cabinet.
Exploring the desert? Integrate subjects by using this desert-animal themed more or less activity.
Younger children can simply discuss which side of the strip contains more animals.
Older children can use the symbols < > = (there as many as needed).
A control chart is included to allow independent error correction.
These 3-Part Nomenclature Cards consist of 6 pictures, labels and text cards as well as one control booklet clearly showing the internal parts of a pyramid:
air shafts, subterranean chamber, king's chamber, queen's chamber, grand gallery, pyramid
Print on cardstock, cut on black lines, fold on grey ones and laminate. If you want to include the cursive label (D'Nealian), just fold in the middle so it's back to back.
These cards can be used as flashcards or matching cards for more individually paced learning. For younger children, print two sets of the pictures and leave the labels attached on one - the children can then use those as control cards to match the loose labels. For early readers, match labels to pictures and use control booklet to check and discuss work. For older children, match labels and text to pictures.
Use the blackline master printable to make own booklets.

What Are Classified Cards?
Montessori 3-Part Cards usually consist of three pieces:
a control with the picture and its name
a picture without the name
a label without the picture
Ours come with an extra text card for readers and a control booklet so the work is self-correcting and independent! You can choose to include the optional cursive label (D’Nealian font) or just use the print version.
3-Part Cards are used to explore a variety of topics that are otherwise inaccessible in a normal classroom or home, bridging space and time. They can be matched to real objects or each other, used as a kind of flashcard in a 3-Period Lesson, adapted for memory games and serve as reading practice.
Explore lines with clear pictures and simple text. Our cards develop order, reading and visual discrimination. They build vocabulary and help with classification and categorisation. Not only that, they make learning fun and easy!
