I have created this lesson using the Montessori Stamp Game as an inspiration and will be teaching students to add up larger quantities ( two, three and four-digit quantities) that include carrying over, using primary colored foam squares. For this particular class, I will provide a short lesson and then have some time aside for questions to be asked or doubts to be cleared. I am positive that a 50-minute duration will be enough time for students to follow the lesson, practice a few examples with me and clear any questions or doubts. I am also offering similar classes for subtraction, division, and multiplication using the same method. Feel free to enroll in them as well if you like this one.
Learning Goals
This lesson is very hands-on as using primary-colored foam squares, students will easily be able to add up two, three and four-digit quantities including carrying over very easily.

Teacher expertise and credentials
With my observation and 10 years of teaching experience using the Montessori Method specifically children aged 6 to 9, this lesson has been one of the favorite lessons of children and has helped a lot of children who were initially struggling with his particular concept. I feel after having presented this lesson I would be able to set the children up for success.Reviews
