Metal insets

View item in the U of T Libraries catalogue

Dr. Montessori analyzed the movements that are connected with writing and developed The Metal Insets for directly preparing the child for handwriting. Use of this material strengthens the three-finder drop and coordinates the necessary wrist movements. The exercises also advance proficiency in lightness of touch and evenness of pressure through drawing activities. The Metal Insets invite unlimited geometric design possibilities.--Publisher's catalogue.
