Traditional Names

The Traditional Names Material is a foundational Montessori numeracy tool designed to help children understand number names and visualize quantities in sequence. This set includes wooden number cards from 1 to 10 and 10 to 100, printed in bold black text on white cards for clear visibility.

This material introduces children to number recognition, number naming, and the traditional way of reading numbers in tens. By working with these cards, children learn how numbers progress, how tens are formed, and how number patterns develop. It is an excellent aid for reinforcing counting, sequencing, and early math vocabulary while preparing the child for more advanced Montessori math materials such as the Seguin Boards and the Decimal System.

Ideal for Montessori classrooms and home learning environments, this resource supports early numeracy development through hands-on, self-corrective exploration.
