Klein once said, "Mathematics is a rational spirit that enables the human mind to be applied to the fullest degree." This shows the importance of mathematics for children's divergent thinking.
But it is precisely the subject of mathematics that makes many children feel the fear of being dominated. After repeated defeats, children gradually formed the solidified idea that mathematics is talented, and it is difficult to progress with hard work.
It seems that this is the case, people who know math always solve problems easily, and learning math seems to be a game for them. On the other hand, children who are not good at math seem to learn math as a game"Torture"。In fact, observing those children who are good at math, most of them have the following three characteristics.
1. Strong mathematical and logical thinking
When tutoring children with math problems, it is often found that:It's obviously the same type of question, but in other words, the child won't.
And if you look closely at the children who do well in mathematics, they do not rely on "problem-solving methods", but on mastering "basic problem-solving ideas". As long as the question type remains the same, they can solve it according to their own ideas, no matter what.
The last time I went to a friend's house to play, I met his son doing a math problem, and he wrote 5 ways to solve a problem. Every time he did it, he asked himself a few questions: Is there a pattern in the complex arithmetic numbers? Conventional thinking is troublesome, and reverse thinking will not be simple.
Like a friend's son, he is proficient in all kinds of problem-solving ideas, no matter how the question type changes, but in the end, he can solve all kinds of problem types.
Second, know how to draw inferences from one example
Mathematics is different from other subjects, it does not mean that you can memorize it, but if you delve into it, you will find it very interesting because there are different solutions. And sometimes the problems that seem to be 108,000 miles apart are the same practical solution ideas.
Children who are good at math always know how to draw inferences from one another, learn a problem, and basically know all kinds of problems in this way, and sometimes they can come up with other different solutions, and their minds are spinning all the time.
Third, there is a certain sense of number
Number sense is simply the ability to understand numbers and understand the relationship between abstraction and concreteness.
For example, counting from 1 to 10 is just memorizing numbers, and it does not reflect whether the number sense is good or not. However, it is possible to understand more than 2 apples, and to understand and use the first and second ......The concept of ordinal numbers, which can correspond numbers to objects, is a manifestation of number sense.
Part of the number sense comes from innate, and the other part can actually be cultivated by initiation in children's early education.
For example, often take your baby to count ...... when you take things and take stepsIt will be used as much as possible in life, and when reading picture books to the baby, take him to count the various patterns on the picture book, and reuse various scenes to help the baby understand the use of numbers.
If your child is struggling with math, you may want to read some interesting math books. When it comes to mathematics books, we have to mention the mathematics education book - "Three Books of Mathematics", which is by far the most classic mathematics popular science book in China, and it is also an important reference textbook for mathematics teachers in primary and secondary schools.
Designed for primary and secondary school students, it skillfully integrates knowledge, interest, story, and readability, and conveys to children the methods and ideas of thinking about mathematical problems, focusing on helping children comprehensively improve their ability to solve mathematical problems and exercise their thinking skills.
There are three books in this set:
The first book is"Mr. Ma on Arithmetic".It is important to talk about how to use the ** method to find some arithmetic four problems.
The second book is"Fun in Mathematics".It is important to talk about the mathematical problems encountered in daily life, everyone talks about everything is mathematics, and it is very fast to learn and train mathematics according to everything.
The third book is"The Garden of Mathematics".This volume is a bit more difficult, and it talks about the basic elements of functions, induced functions, differentiation, integration, and set parts, as well as the basic elements of the operation algorithm of both.
After the author's ingenious writing, as long as you have learned elementary algebra and geometry, it will be easy and effortless to read and master, so this book can be used as an important self-study book for elementary and middle school students. This set of "Three Books of Mathematics" can help you build good mathematical thinking skills and stimulate your interest in learning all subjects.
The original price is 139 yuan, and the three books are limited to 89 yuanWhy not spend a small amount of money to help your child build a solid foundation in mathematics?
