Please note there are more words in the words lists than there are in the picture/card matching cards. This is purposeful. Not all words are easily depicted in image form. As such, the words chosen for the picture/word matching activity are primarily nouns. The lists provide an opportunity to practice reading a variety of words familiar to children, including both nouns and verbs.
Extensions of this set include:
- Green Series Blends Puzzles (coming soon)
- Montessori Storybook Alphabet (pair with photo cards to make each word)
Both are available in the Language Resources section of the shop.
