The Montessori Compass team is proud to offer free, web-based access to a sophisticated and thoughtfully organized Montessori Scope & Sequence, developed in collaboration with Tim Seldin and the Montessori Foundation. With nearly 3,000 lessons, this resource spans ten curriculum categories and supports educators serving children from infancy through age 12.


This Scope & Sequence is not meant to be a rigid checklist. Instead, it’s a flexible framework designed to honor the diverse needs of Montessori classrooms around the world—while remaining true to the Montessori Method and its core principles. Each lesson is aligned to specific cycle years and paired with clearly defined, measurable learning objectives (called “elements”) to make observation and record-keeping easier and more consistent.


When used within the Montessori Compass platform, schools can easily customize the curriculum to meet their specific needs. Many lessons include parent-friendly descriptions and photos that help families better understand what their children are learning, fostering a deeper connection between school and home.


In addition, the Montessori Compass Scope & Sequence is fully mapped to the United States Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for Mathematics and English Language Arts (Kindergarten through Grade 6).


How the Scope & Sequence Is Organized

Category: The curriculum area (e.g., Sensorial)

Sub-Category: A group of related lessons (e.g., Visual Discrimination – Size and Dimension)

Lesson/Material: The specific material or activity the child is working with (e.g., Pink Tower)

Element: The learning outcome the child is demonstrating (e.g., Uses smallest cube to indicate unit of difference)


Example Display

Sensorial | Visual Discrimination (Size and Dimension) | Pink Tower | Uses smallest cube to indicate unit of difference


Build a Custom Curriculum

While the Montessori Scope & Sequence is an excellent foundation—especially for new MC subscribers—it’s fully customizable to meet your school’s specific needs. You can edit lessons, create your own, and even import an entire custom curriculum with ease.
