Description:
 
The Metal Insets are an essential component of the Montessori Language Curriculum, designed to help children prepare for writing.
This eye-catching material includes ten metal shapes—each a different geometric form—framed in pink with a blue metal inset, each featuring a knob for easy handling.
These shapes, including a square, triangle, circle, rectangle, and more complex forms like the quatrefoil and ellipse, allow children to explore various geometrical concepts while strengthening their fine motor skills.
 
The Metal Insets serve to:
Prepare for writing by developing fine motor control and pencil grip
Foster concentration and focus as children carefully work with the material
Encourage hand-eye coordination and control of movement
Introduce design concepts by exploring shape outlines and shading
