[nobe-l] just wanted to introduce myself

Hi Sharon:

Check out Exceptional Teaching Aids.  The lower case, upper case, and 
punctuation marks are of a good size, have magnets on the back, and are of a 
great size to use with children.

Melissa, I was wondering if you knew of specific Montessori manipulatives
that help children with letters and numbers.  I haven't had formal
Montessori training, but I've read a lot of books and I implement many of
the strategies in my own classroom.  If you could recommend a site or
catalog for me, that would be fabulous.

Thanks.

Sharon Dudley, NBCT
