Adding product to your cart
Gentle + Classical Nature Volume 1: Inland Waterways and Forests has been created to make Charlotte Mason's "Formidable List of Attainments for a Child of 6" all the more attainable without overwhelm.
This CARD bundle has been created for families who want the following resources in PRINTED/CUT format rather than doing a DIY at home. If you already own the DIGITAL Bundle or you have just purchased the PRINTED NATURE BUNDLE, then you already have these items.
What's Included?
This PHYSICAL Delivery option includes options for customization. Each Physical Delivery bundle includes:
-
A double set of the 3-Part Montessori Cards (for games, etc) printed on 130lb gloss stock. (These are quarter-page sized.)
-
Level 1-3 of the Memory Statement Cards, printed on 100lb gloss stock.
-
Board Headers for creating a Memory Statement Board, printed on 100lb gloss stock. (These are half-page.)
-
ONE Deck of Foreign Language Vocabulary Cards- YOU CHOOSE. French or Spanish is available. These cards are half-page and printed on 130lb gloss stock.
-
THESE ITEMS ARE NOT LAMINATED. However, the paper is heavy-duty, durable, and has a glossy finish. You might consider lamination if extreme longevity is what you're looking for.
Who's it for?
This program includes memory statements for 3 "levels" and detailed content and activities for Levels 1 and 2.

Digital vs Print
This product offering is a PRINTED/CUT version of the already available Nature Volume 1 Montessori 3-Part Cards (in English), the 3 Levels of Memory Statement Cards (in English), and the French OR Spanish Vocabulary Cards aligned with Volume 1.
- If you own the DIGITAL BUNDLE, you already own these.
- If you have ordered the PRINT NATURE BUNDLE, these are also included in that.
- This offering is for families who do not want to print/cut out the Memory Statement Cards, Montessori 3-Part Cards, or Foreign Language cards but have NOT ordered the printed bundle (unless you desire more print sets).
