Emergent Reading
After a lot of experience with word-based reading (see our beginning reading materials), children are ready to move onto scientific terms, phrases, and sentences. This is where you can really guide and encourage them to develop their interests into fields of inquiry. This may happen anywhere from age 5 to 9 but age ranges are highly variable and in Montessori, we follow the child, not their birth date.
