The Best Montessori Curriculum for 3-6 Gift Guide

In this post, we will talk about Montessori curriculum and what main topics to include for each subject (tons of topics per subject).

But to make it a lot easier for you to not be blindly browsing all over the web, I will give you a Montessori preschool curriculum PDF.

Use all of this information, including the Montessori materials that we recommend to stock up your beautiful Montessori environment.

Once you download this Montessori curriculum 3-6 PDF, you will see that I have split it up by subject.

Each subject has many of the main or first topics for you to teach preschool activities the Montessori way.

But not just that!

Almost each topic has a clickable link with the entire Montessori lesson for that topic. It includes materials, step-by-step instructions, recommended books and more!

So, download the list and print it for reference, but also save it into your computer so whenever you are planning a lesson, click on the link and it is all there for you!

Before you begin, though, let me share with you some great resources that will go perfectly with what you are planning!

Montessori Curriculum: Sensorial

When it comes to Montessori homeschool curriculum, this is a great list to start with.

For our Sensorial materials, we use just Montessori curriculum because of the unique and specific skills they target.

Plus, we simply love these materials!

Remember, these are all in the free printable list, so you don’t have to copy these down. 

1. Cylinder Blocks are the best. My children have used these the most and used them for years.
2. The Pink Tower is the best. You can see how we’ve used ours in this post: Montessori Sensorial: The Pink Tower.
3. Brown Stair and Extensions.

Read many, many other links on the list in the list of free preschool curriculum pdf below!

The Montessori Math Method

I love the Montessori Math addition lessons and would choose them any day over paper-and-pencil work.  

Montessori Math lessons are hands-on and fun. Print the entire list in this post!

1. Sandpaper Numbers: this is how my kids learned to trace and write their numbers.
2. A Sand Tray is awesome to teach kids to trace numbers, but also letters and shapes!
3. Red Rods: well, I already mentioned that they’re great for counting and also for measurement.

Geography & History the Montessori Way

We really love learning about different cultures from around world. Geography is our favorite subject of all.

We always go to our Montessori curriculum for kindergarten first.

We want to see what the kids are supposed to be learning and in what order.

Here is a great starter list.

1. First, we did some Land, Water, Air Activities. Look at these 2 blog posts: Basic Land, Water & Air Lesson and 3 Advanced Lessons.
2. Next, we learn about The Globe. We talk about water and land, about continents and where we live, and so on.
3. The Continents come next. Here are Several lessons and free printables.

Our free Montessori curriculum PDF includes the other Preschool lesson plans. Get this long list below!

Montessori Language Arts

Are you convinced that the Montessori method of teaching is the absolute best?

If so, then you will want to use some (or all) of their materials to teach Language Arts.

Check out the list and some resources that you will find helpful.

1. Start out with teaching and practicing Object Names. The earlier, the better: Lessons for toddlers in preparation for this (great for toddler Montessori curriculum ideas)
2. Metal Insets are the best because they have multiple uses. Here is a post that is a comparable activity with geometric cabinet.
3. Sandpaper Letters were great for learning the shapes of letters and learn to trace them: Sandpaper Letters Lessons.

Our Montessori curriculum free download is full of great resources that include many more topics to teach in Language Arts.

1. Botany: Parts of a Plant and Tree
2. More Botany: Parts of a Fruit
3. Botany: Parts of a Stem, Leaf, Seed
