Montessori Mathematics Quotes & Sayings

This system in which a child is constantly moving objects with his hands and actively exercising his senses, also takes into account a child's special aptitude for mathematics.

They can thus carryout an abstract mental operation and acquire a kind of natural and spontaneous inclination for mental calculations. — Maria Montessori

Children display a universal love of mathematics, which is
par excellence the science of precision, order, and intelligence. — Maria Montessori
