 h English (en)In Montessori education, the '''Mathematical Mind''' refers to the inherent human tendency towards logical thinking and the acquisition of mathematical skills.<ref>Montessori, M. (1948). To Educate the Human Potential. Clio Press.</ref> According to Maria Montessori, all babies are born with a mathematical mind, exhibiting a natural propensity to learn things that enhance their ability to be exact and orderly, to observe, compare, and classify. Humans naturally tend to calculate, measure, reason, abstract, imagine, and create. However, this vital part of intelligence requires guidance and opportunities to develop and function effectively. If mathematics is not part of a young child's experiences, their subconscious mind may be less receptive to it at a later date.
