Montessori Grammar Symbolising Activity | Grammar Symbols Sentence Analysis Strips | Parts of Speech Work

Bring Montessori grammar to life with these engaging Grammar Symbolising sentence strips designed to help children independently analyse the function of words within a sentence.

Rather than simply memorising grammar rules, children actively explore how language works by identifying and symbolising parts of speech using Montessori grammar symbols. This material supports the transition from concrete Montessori grammar materials to increasingly complex sentence analysis work.

The sentences have been intentionally written to reflect the diverse, multicultural world children live in, helping learners see themselves and others represented in their language work.

Included in this resource:

• 9 progressive grammar symbolising sets
• 10 sentence strips in each set
• Answer key included
• UK English and US English versions
