Grammar Symbols

In Lower Elementary Montessori, we do a lot of work with the various parts of speech. Each part of speech and it's coordinating symbol is introduced one at a time. The child learns to label the parts of speech in a sentence or phrase and will eventually label the parts of speech in his or her own sentence.

Eventually our work will look something like this.


Right now our work looks like this. As of now, we have learned nouns, articles, and adjectives. This is known as the noun family
