Language follows a certain set of rules, it behaves in predictable ways, and it requires civil conversation to reach the best conclusion. To learn the parts of speech Maria Montessori developed the grammar symbols. There is logic and an interesting ‘story’ behind each symbol created. Here are a few that you may or may not already know… Because the pyramid was the first building on earth, and the first human beings only used nouns in their spoken language, the noun was symbolized by a pyramid. All parts of speech connected to the noun, got the same symbol. Because the sun brings life, the verb was symbolized by the sun. Verbs make sentences alive. Did you know that the pronoun is 2 mm taller than the noun and that Maria Montessori made a conscious choice for the color purple? The pronoun is frustrated because it cannot always be the noun. However, when he’s allowed to replace the noun, maybe he then feels supreme to the noun?! Food for thought… Language And Grammar Are A Lot Like Math And Science
