Grammar Symbol - Paper in a child's hands
Grammar Symbol - Paper: Auxiliary (100) is a pack of 100 paper and cardstock symbols marking the auxiliary verb within the Montessori grammar symbols system. Placed above a word in sentence analysis or grammar box work, the symbol lets the child see at a glance that a verb is being supported by a helping verb, without needing to name the rule out loud. Sold as a replenishment pack, it is designed to keep a classroom or home shelf stocked for ongoing grammar work. The symbols are AMI certified and suited to children aged 3 to 6.
Grammar Comprehension
Provides concrete representation of auxiliary verbs, making abstract grammatical concepts visible and tangible for young learners.
Language Analysis Skills
Supports systematic sentence analysis by allowing children to physically mark and identify auxiliary verbs in written work.
Visual Learning
The consistent circular symbol helps children recognize patterns in language structure through visual association.
Classification Abilities
Develops understanding of word categories and their functions within sentences through hands-on symbol placement.
How to present it
Prepare a tray with the auxiliary verb circles, sentence strips containing auxiliary verbs, and a work mat. Include sentences with varying complexity levels.
- 1Read a prepared sentence strip aloud, emphasizing each word clearly
- 2Ask the child to identify the main verb in the sentence first
- 3Guide recognition of the helping verb by asking 'What word helps this verb show when it happens?'
- 4Place an auxiliary verb circle above each identified helping verb
- 5Read the sentence again, touching each circle as you say the auxiliary verb
- 6Remove circles and invite the child to mark auxiliary verbs independently
3 tips for parents
- Look for auxiliary verbs in bedtime stories and point them out conversationally
- Practice identifying 'is,' 'are,' 'was,' and 'were' in everyday speech
- Support school work by maintaining consistent grammar terminology at home

Frequently Asked Questions
What color and size are the auxiliary verb circles?
In the Montessori grammar symbol system, auxiliary verb circles are purple and smaller than verb circles, measuring approximately 1.5cm in diameter. This size distinction helps children differentiate between main verbs and helping verbs.
What auxiliary verbs do children typically mark with these circles?
Children use these circles to mark helping verbs like 'is,' 'are,' 'was,' 'were,' 'have,' 'has,' 'had,' 'will,' 'can,' 'could,' 'should,' and 'would' when analyzing sentences in grammar work.
How do these circles support grammar understanding for ages 3-6?
The concrete purple circles help young children visualize the role of helping verbs in sentences, making abstract grammar concepts tangible through hands-on manipulation and visual representation during sentence analysis activities.
Can these circles be used with other grammar symbol materials?
Yes, auxiliary verb circles are designed to work seamlessly with the complete Montessori grammar symbol system, including noun triangles, verb circles, adjective triangles, and other symbols for comprehensive sentence analysis.
How many sentences can children analyze with 100 circles?
With 100 circles, children can analyze approximately 50-100 sentences depending on complexity, as many sentences contain one or two auxiliary verbs. This quantity supports extensive practice over several months of grammar work.
