Montessori Inspiration for Parents and Teachers

Montessori-Inspired Solar System Unit

By

Today I want to share some Montessori-inspired solar system printables and activities from around the blogosphere.

Montessori-Inspired Solar System Unit

I’ll just add activities from posts published after my Montessori-Inspired Astronomy Activities post unless they’re sun-related activities and printables in my Montessori-Inspired Star and Constellation Unit or moon-related activities and printables in my Montessori-Inspired Moon Unit. I’m not including Montessori Great Lessons, either.

    I love popping by and seeing your round ups – we LOVE space and can’t wait to select some of these to try in the remaining days of space week and next time the topic of space is J or T’s main focus.

    I have just spent the last hour (or more) clicking through these wonderful links and gathering ideas. My son loves outer space so much that you have made his day! Thank you also for co-hosting this link up (I linked up 2 posts). Thanks for linking up this week to my Enchanted Thursdays Blog Hop (I always love seeing all of your wonderful posts)!
