Geography is one of many children’s favorite subjects. One of the reasons why is because country flags are so cool and very unique. Come and find out how you can teach children about some of the flags of the world.

Montessori Culture is a subject that covers several subjects.

One of them is the wonderful subject of Montessori Geography.

Children learn through many different ways, but young children learn best with visual and hands-on materials.

So, as you put together your Culture studies together and plan lesson and materials, keep this in mind.

In this post, we will be going into one Montessori inspired section of the Cultural curriculum that involves country flags.

This section is learning national flags of the world, so let’s get into this great discussion.

It is true in our home, for sure.

One of the reasons why is because country flags are so intriguing and very unique.

3-Part Cards are very popular in some Montessori circles.

This that haven’t gotten into them is because they don’t know how to use them or find the value in them.

Let me tell you: they are amazing and I am a big advocate of having 3-part cards in the Montessori classroom.

There are many reasons why, but I will only name a few:

  • They save space because they are paper
  • They are visual
  • They are hands-on
  • They have a control of error

What is even more fun, you can then merge both lessons and place the continent 3-part cards in a row and then place the corresponding flag cards below each continent.

Doesn’t that sound like a great idea for a series of Geography lessons?

Children can also use the cards to copy them and draw them themselves.

They can color them and label their own hand-drawn flags.

They will be so proud and will enjoy displaying them!

20 Country Flags of the World

Montessori learning is beautiful, varying and free.

Don’t feel attached to bound to doing your lessons in specific ways.

As long as you know how the 3-part cards are used, the rest, the sky is the limit!

What is wonderful is that this set includes the lesson plan on how to use the 3-part cards.

Start slow, with only a few flags.

You can choose the most different-looking ones or have the child pick the three.

Once those are learned, add more and more until all 20 are in the mix.

It will be wonderful!

Expand the lesson to learn more about those countries.

Find them on a map.

  • North America
  • South America (don’t forget to include Central America here, too)
  • Europe

You can make this lesson in any way you want, but I have put together this set for you.

I want to encourage you to check it out below because it is all done for you.
