According to Wikipedia, “Experiential learning is the process of making meaning from direct experience. Aristotle once said, ‘For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them.’”

Montessori in general supports the notion of learning by doing. In our classrooms children begin with concrete lessons and proceed later to abstract levels of understanding. A child’s first exposure to multiplication may be by counting sets beads, for example counting a chain of beads by fives. Once the child has mastered this level we can then introduce the language of multiplication, for example “5 x 4″ could be called “five fours” or “four fives”.
