Montessori-Inspired Volcano and Earthquake Activities Using Free Printables

By Deb Chitwood from Living Montessori Now 

We had fun with our rocks and minerals unit last summer, so I've prepared a volcano and earthquake unit with free printables and hands-on activities! I also have a new Montessori-inspired volcano and earthquake pack (newsletter subscriber freebie at LivingMontessoriNow.com)



You'll find many activities for preschoolers through first graders throughout the year along with presentation ideas in my previous posts at PreK + K Sharing. You'll also find ideas for using free printables to create activity trays here: How to Use Printables to Create Montessori-Inspired Activities

At Living Montessori Now, I have a post with resource links of Free Printables for Montessori Homeschools and Preschools.
