Problem solving is an important part of children's math learning. However, a lot of kids make various mistakes when it comes to solving problems. Among them, problems such as reading and reviewing questions, column errors and incorrect writing of unit names are common. In order to help children improve their problem-solving skills, this article will ** the causes of these problems and how to solve them.
1. Problems in reading and reviewing questions.
Many children make mistakes when solving problems, often because they do not read and review the questions carefully. They may only focus on the numbers in the question and ignore other key information such as units, symbols, etc. Therefore, in order to improve children's reading and review skills, parents and teachers can take the following measures:
1.Guide your child to read the question carefully and understand the problem described in the question.
2.Help your child identify key information in the question, such as numbers, units, symbols, etc.
3.Determine the problem required to be solved by the problem, and clarify the solution idea.
For children who are not reading well, ask them to read the questions aloud to ensure that they fully understand the questions and pay attention to all the key information. After reading aloud for a period of time, they will be trained to read silently to improve their reading speed and comprehension skills. At the same time, ask questions about the key points of the topic and let the children answer them to understand their understanding.
Second, solve the problem column is always wrong.
Columnar errors are one of the common problems that children have when solving problems. This is mainly because children do not establish a connection between mathematical knowledge and life problems, and do not understand the meaning and usage of the four operations. Therefore, parents and teachers can take the following steps:
1.Help your child understand the meaning and usage of the four arithmetics. Let them know what the meaning of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division is, what kind of problems in life they can solve, and practice accordingly.
2.Guide your child to turn life problems into math problems. Through examples and demonstrations, children can understand how to turn problems in life into mathematical problems and build mathematical models.
3.Encourage your child to practice. Through a lot of practice, children can become familiar with the solutions to various problems, and improve their problem-solving ability and self-confidence.
3. Write the wrong name of the unit in the problem.
Misspelling the name of the unit is one of the common problems that children have when solving problems. This is mainly because the child does not understand the practical significance of the problem and the importance of the unit. Therefore, parents and teachers can take the following steps:
1.Help your child understand the practical meaning of the problem. Through examples and demonstrations, children can understand the actual context and meaning of the problem, so as to better understand the importance of units.
2.Guide your child to pay attention to the correct use of the name of the unit. When using columns, ask your child to pay attention to the correct use of unit names and indicate them in short text next to the equation. This will help them better understand and remember how to use unit names.
3.Encourage your child to practice. Through a lot of practice, children can become familiar with the solutions to various problems, and improve their problem-solving ability and self-confidence.
Fourth, the solution.
In response to the above problems, we can take the following solutions:
1.Guide children to read and review the questions carefully to understand the problems and key information described in the questions.
2.Help children establish the connection between mathematical knowledge and life problems, and understand the meaning and usage of the four operations.
3.Guide children to pay attention to the correct use of unit names and build up their knowledge and understanding of units.
4.Encourage your child to practice more and improve their problem-solving skills and self-confidence through plenty of practice.
5.Establish a good teacher-student relationship and encourage children to ask teachers for questions and help.
6.Parents and teachers should work closely together and support their children's math learning, pay attention to their learning situation and needs, and provide necessary support and assistance.
In short, in order to help children improve their problem-solving skills, we need to guide them to read and review the problems carefully, understand the meaning and usage of the four operations, pay attention to the correct use of unit names, practice more, and establish a good teacher-student relationship. At the same time, parents and teachers should work closely together and support children's mathematics learning to help them better grasp mathematics knowledge and improve their mathematical ability.
