Learning about different types of deserts is a great way for elementary learners to develop a border appreciation for diverse ecosystems and the unique ways plants and animals thrive in challenging conditions. With our new innovative materials on Types of Deserts, you will find that this topic folds beautifully into the Montessori science curriculum!

We are excited to introduce a new addition to our geoscience selection of materials! Seafloor Spreading (6-9) Complete Set. The study of the seafloor spreading compliments our work on Map of the Ocean Floor Puzzle and Oceanic Landforms Puzzle.
he study of biomes is an important part of the Montessori curriculum, as it helps children understand the diversity of life on Earth and the interconnectedness of all living things. Biomes are large areas of the Earth with similar climates and plant and animal life. With our new materials, Biomes Puzzle Maps, children can see how the Earth is divided into biomes, regardless of political borders. Our puzzles contain major biomes such as tropical rainforests, deserts, grasslands, temperate forests, mountains, wetlands, and tundra.
By studying ecosystems, children can think critically and construct an argument from the evidence that living organisms are interdependent and dependent on their environment.
