Montessori Sensorial: Knobless Cylinders (Extensions)

To learn more about these, CLICK HERE. I am adding some extensions below.

Extension 1

1. He placed the knobless cylinders out of order on the mat.

2. He then arranged them in order (thickest to thinnest).

3. He put on a blindfold and was given two knobless cylinders (to hold one in each hand).

4. We talked about the words "thickest," "thicker than," thinnest," "thinner than," etc.

5. He was to use those words to describe the knobless cylinders in his hands.

6. Repeat process with the other colors, but using correct terms, such as "shortest," "shorter than," tallest," taller than," etc.

Extension 2

Use the red, green and yellow knobless cylinders to build a tower, creating a pattern.
