Islamic Architecture has beautiful geometrical patterns throughout it. It uplifts the spirits and points to supreme mathematical intelligence of God throughout all creation. Circles & Stars are two geometric shapes that are often repeated.

I have had a love affair with Math since about the age of 8 years old when I was introduced to Montessori's long division work. While my friend's struggled in Math in Middle School and High School, I could visualize it and I attribute it to how many hours I would spend in repetition with the different Montessori material.
American Montessori Society (AMS) requires an original material to compliment the completed album. As I was working on my Montessori Math album, I thought to combine my loves of math and Islamic art and a math game that was previously shared with me to make my original math material. Big A was almost 2 years and I was pregnant with S man when I presented this work to my instructor. Now Z man and soon Lil A will use it to learn and practice their multiplication. I love it when material can last a long time and be handed down.
