Holiday 3-part cards
Use last years Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanzza cards to make some nice holiday reading 3-part cards. I know I don’t want to send out last year’s cards, and I have at least 2 or 3 copies of each, which makes them perfect for Montessori reading cards.
Here are some examples you can use -print out 2 copies for each word you want to introduce. You can trim off any part of the card to make the exercise make more sense to your child.
Shepherds–
Mary & Jesus
Nativity
Menorah
For older children, you can write more than one word label for the card. For example, write Mary and Jesus or a short sentence, ‘This is Mary and baby Jesus.” Older children can make a timeline of the holiday from the past to the present.
