Math Summer 2002 Math is an Abstract Science and children generally have difficulty in understanding it's concepts. More over children have difficulty in relating it with their real world. In Montessori School of Downtown we have a Math Lab. We show the child how numbers move physically. Children see how and why carry over takes place. Why putting a zero before a decimal or after a decimal can change the value of a number. We teach math by a unique hands-on approach. Once the basic concepts are clear, children develop interest in math and it becomes exciting for them! The world of excitement is a child's world of learning. By learning this physical significance of math, our children master the art of application in their day to day problems. Click Here to go to the TOP

Blue's ABC - The game opens with Blue and her felt friend in Felt World and one "O" space remaining on the tic-tac-toe game board. It's up to YOU to place an "O" in the correct space. When you get three in a row, you WIN, and Blue comes in and dances! When you click PLAY again, a NEW game board appears. This time, the game board is blank and you are playing with an "X" to win against "O" Felt Friend. The game continues until either "X" or "O" wins and Blue dances! Jumble - The object of Jumble is to solve JumbleGrams, which are well-known phrases that you can decode only by deducing which of several different possible letters to use for each letter of the answer. You can play Jumble alone or in a group, competitively or cooperatively, against the clock or at your own pace. Two phrase books come with Jumble. One features proverbs, cliches, and catchphrases; the other is a list of over 200 Beatles song titles. You can modify the phrase books from within the game, or create new ones for yourself or others to enjoy.
