Geography - Planisphere Map

DateTuesday, April 12, 2011 at 5:05PM

Out of our archives...Kellie Stubblefield of Whitsett, North Carolina shares her original project entitled The Felt Continents Map. “I really enjoyed working with cloth and utilizing a wooden board that I already had, to create what I believe is a pretty high quality home-made Montessori material.”

Kellie cut the boards and hinged them so that the maps fold up for easy storage and carrying. The top map functions as a control. This is yet another fine example of creativity, resourcefulness, and attention to detail. The materials are natural, inviting for the child...simply beautiful. Thank you, Kellie!

This is very nice! Another great extension for those who have done the maps so many times, but maybe not ready to pin poke yet. Thank you for sharing!

I made a felt map, but not a hemisphere one. I love the hemisphere and the control map for little ones! Thank you for sharing, I recently made Children of the World cards to go with our continent study, you can download and view them here: http://noorjanan.blogspot.com/2011/11/children-of-world.html
