The materials cover a range of Montessori areas, including Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, and Cultural subjects to support children initially from 3 to 12 years of age (to be expanded for all ages). These mainly cover Timelines, Nomenclature, Classified Cards, printed consumables and language materials.
Are the materials aligned with Montessori principles?
Yes, all materials are created in accordance with Montessori principles and are reviewed and authorised by the Association Montessori Internationale.
I have developed some materials and would like to contribute them to AMI.
We welcome submissions via our Contact Us page.
Can materials be adapted to my language, culture or location?
In keeping with AMI’s mission to fulfil the rights of children and adults around the world to have access to nurturing, developmentally appropriate, educational environments, our aim is to offer a continuously expanding suite of inclusive, diversely rich materials. As Montessorians, we recognise the importance of responding to the individual needs of the child, so specific requests for translations or new materials is welcome. We also remind educators that the materials in our classrooms provide keys to jump start a love of learning and spark interest for them to explore the world themselves. For information on translations, submissions and requests, visit this page.
