Place value is so important for a good mathematical foundation. Do your Lower Elementary students get enough math practice with the Montessori Golden Bead material? Do they have a hard time moving from a concrete understanding of numbers to the more abstract written form? Save yourself some time and aggravation with these printable booklets which are so much more fun than worksheets. Each booklet increases in difficulty and can be used alongside the Montessori Golden Beads (or Base Ten Blocks) to build better number sense and help students make the connection between the beads, the numbers, and place value.

**This product has been updated and may vary slightly from what you see in the photos. See the PREVIEW to know exactly what you will get.**

You can also buy a larger version that breaks things down a bit more for beginners.

Here are some reasons this resource will make things easier for you in the classroom:

1. The booklets are super easy to make and instructions are included.
2. You get 12 different booklets (of increasing difficulty). They start with teaching the unit beads and end with numbers into the thousands.
3. I've included two different formats for teacher convenience: 1) Suitable for printing class sets of booklets and 2) Suitable for printing individual sets of booklets for a few students.
4. Colourful ANSWER KEY booklets are included so children can check their own work.
5. Your students will be more engaged than doing the same activity on a worksheet.
6. I've included prep and presentation instructions for teachers so you can get this activity up and running quickly.

Here's what other teachers have to say:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Such a great resource to practice counting, build place value and work with the golden bead material. Not only is this product great for a Montessori classroom, but the concept is transferable to be used with base ten blocks too! I love that students will have their own little books; this always elevates their interest compared to filling out a worksheet. Assembly was really easy too, I actually prefer to staple the booklets first and then stack two sets to cut with the paper cutter, so quick!!"—Buyer

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Our students loved this work and ask for more. They are so proud of their booklets."—Marie M.
