Most parents have experienced that children's mathematical enlightenment education is really very difficult, starting from simple counting, it takes a lot of effort to explain it clearly to their children.
Nowadays, there are many books on the market for children's mathematical enlightenment, such as children's enlightenment cognition, comic mathematics, etc., all of which are aimed at helping children understand mathematics earlier.
However, no matter which method it is, it is the premise to interest the child, and the practical application is more critical, and it is fundamental to be able to let the child learn and understand.
The book I bought today is eye-catching, if only I had read it earlier.
Title: "Preschool Children's Mathematics Enlightenment Practice"
Author: Liang Xiaoyan
Publisher: Tsinghua University Press
The author, Liang Xiaoyan, is a well-known self-media parenting blogger and a doctor of education. She has in-depth research on children's mathematical enlightenment, and has applied the results to her two children, with remarkable results. She has more than 140,000 fans, established a math enlightenment community for preschoolers of more than 3,000 people, and trained more than 10,000 students.
The author proposes to help children with mathematics enlightenment education through teaching aids.
This book includes 10 chapters, first introducing the precautions and knowledge points of the preschool mathematical enlightenment stage, and then the mathematical enlightenment in life, sensory mathematical enlightenment, numbers within 10, continuous counting, decimal, four operations, memory mathematics, abstract introductory learning, understanding fractions and other concepts, which are explained in detail through mathematical enlightenment teaching aids.
In terms of cognition, there are seven basic abilities for mathematical enlightenment in life, which are comparison, correspondence, classification, sorting, number and quantity, graphic, and spatial orientation.
In the use of teaching aids, to take the simplest example, in order to cultivate children's sense of order in the early days, children should learn to wipe the table. The recommended teaching has, a dry rag, a basin with clean water. Teach your child how to wet the rag, wring it out, and then wipe the table from top to bottom, left to right, and repeat until it is clean.
The book has four major characteristics: first, it changes tradition: through 53 teaching aids, it transitions from life and senses to abstract thinking; Second, the content is comprehensive, covering more than 100 knowledge points in the stage of mathematical enlightenment; Third, there are many cases, and the book includes 258 practical diagrams of teaching aids to help understanding and memory; Fourth, it is highly practical, and the book gives more than 70 practical methods for parents to learn and use now.
According to the method taught in the book, children around the age of 6 can reach the level of mathematics in the third grade of elementary school.
Teaching children cognitive mathematics with the help of teaching aids to specifically understand arithmetic, geometry and algebra is indeed an easy way to enlighten mathematics. This is actually suitable for children in the lower grades of elementary school.
For me, my family Dabao is in the second grade of primary school, and Erbao is in the kindergarten class, and I am definitely very lucky to encounter such a good extracurricular book.
