I've previously published posts here with Montessori-inspired butterfly, ant, bee, ladybug, and noisy insect themes and free printables. This summer, we're studying weird insects! There's also a weird insect themed pack for newsletter subscribers at LivingMontessoriNow.com!
At Living Montessori Now, I have a post with resource links of Free Printables for Montessori Homeschools and Preschools.
