What is it like for a child to do good math from elementary school?
A friend's daughter just entered the third grade of primary school this year, the math score is full of marks, and now she is learning the mathematical knowledge of junior high school, just because the child's grandmother used to be a special math teacher, and now she has retired, so she will take her granddaughter to study at home all day, so that the child will develop a bully at a young age.
Friends told me that since the child's grandmother retired, the child's learning has been the grandmother in the belt, she was also worried that the teaching methods of the elderly are outdated, not suitable for children, and later found that such worries are completely superfluous, grandma often plays games with children, while learning, so that children gradually fall in love with learning, improve grades.
Grandma's education method for children, the most important point is the enlightenment of mathematics, only the enlightenment education is good, the child can lay a good foundation, and with interesting teaching, so that children are more willing to learn.
To give children mathematical enlightenment, a major principle should be adhered to
Friends said that children's nature is to love to play, if you just blindly force children to learn boring knowledge, it will be counterproductive, children will have resistance, and afraid of learning.
The way to choose the game is also to learn mathematics, which can quickly arouse children's interest.
When playing games with child 2, frequent use of mathematical knowledge, such as in the game of hopscotch, children can clearly recognize the contrast of quantities, so that they can teach invisibly and easily learn knowledge.
For your child's mathematical initiation, pay attention to these points.
For young children, if you want to lay a good foundation in mathematics, there are five most basic directions, and if you carry out teaching in this direction, your children will definitely be better.
1. Quantity correspondence
In the 1-year-old stage of children, although they can count, but does not mean that they understand what this means, my son in the small, I let him take three eggs, he does not know the number, this is the standard can not correspond to the number of white, so when parents educate, you can prepare a lot of objects, while taking and counting, so that children can have a clear understanding.
2, understand the contrast
Although it is a relatively abstract concept, it is also something that children need to remember, because these things are also very important in mathematics.
We can prepare physical objects with comparative value for children so that children can see them. If you can touch it, it is better to understand, such as taking out your own clothes and your child's clothes, making size comparisons, and making abstract concepts concrete.
3. Space and orientation
Many children after going to school, are a sense of space and orientation is not good, always make mistakes, often deduct points in the exam, if not guided in time, then the child's future chapters on geometry will not be learned.
We want to educate children in this regard, we can put the child's toys in front of and behind, left and right, and then guide the child to say the specific position of the toy, which can help the child better understand the front and back, up and down, inside and outside the direction of the word.
4. Overall cognition
For children, it is still difficult to distinguish between three-dimensional graphics and flat graphics, if only used language to inform, they have no concept, but with the combination of stories and pictures, it is easier to understand.
5, find the law
Learning the rules is also when the children go to school, often have to test the knowledge points, let the children understand the law early, in the future primary school can be more relaxed, do more such test questions and tests, you can gradually master the method of doing the questions, learn the rules.
Seeing this some parents and friends may feel too difficult, we are not professional teachers, how can we guide children correctly? In fact, as long as there is the help of tools, you can easily help children learn mathematics, such as this set of "Mathematics is Coming", which is the same textbook that my friend's grandmother is also using, which is specially prepared for 3-6-year-old children.
This set of mathematics comes, with a total of 20 volumes, which contains the above five types of problems to help parents better educate their children.
And the knowledge in the book is combined with games, so that children can learn easily and happily, and there is also my question and answer module to help children better sort out the key points and consolidate knowledge.
If there is a baby who is 3-6 years old at home, you may wish to try this set of "Mathematics Has Come enlightenment picture book" for your child, which uses a combination of games and knowledge to make mathematics more interesting, stimulate children's desire to learn, help children lay a good mathematical foundation, and make learning more simple.
