The natural world and its order ‘speaks’ to children through the amazement and enthusiasm that often is lost on many adults. Montessori students look at the world as it is to understand its order through nomenclature, parts of plants, and animals. They begin to name, draw, and classify plant and animal kingdoms. Often this is done in very practical ways: gardening, care of animals, care of environments, conservation methods, and preservation of habitats. These are not just indoor activities, but the students become accustomed to exploring and searching for animals, and plants in the outdoor spaces of the creek, woodland, and prairie.
