The sandpaper letters Maria Montessori used in her early classrooms offered children a way to make learning to read and write with a tactile experience. Science backs this! Hands-on-learning is an essential component of early childhood education, and you can use this technique at home to teach your own child to read - with or without a real set of sandpaper letters!
