Product Overview



A set of 11 containers made from wood that hold colored pencils used for the metal insets.

Please note the colors sequence: The purpose of these holders is to hold pencils for the metal insets which in turn have an indirect aim in the preparation for handwriting. The original colors that were dictated by Maria while she was in Gonzaga are the ones that are shown here. Montessori arbitrarily chose these colors. Over the years, however, the colors have come to be used for children to draw grammar symbols and inadvertently many mistakenly associate the pencil holders with the grammar symbols. This is incorrect since this was never the intention of this material. The original colors shown here are approved by AMI and match the original plans.
