Because children's thinking characteristics are based on concrete thinking in images, we should pay attention to guiding children to learn mathematics through direct perception, personal experience and practical operation. Let children understand abstract mathematics knowledge in concrete life scenes. For example, encourage children to discover what numbers represent in life together and understand the different meanings that numbers represent in different scenarios. For example, the number 2 can represent two apples, two points on the clock and two dollars on the price tag. This helps to cultivate children's ability to correspond to numbers and deepen their understanding of numbers.
Secondly, share some fun and interesting ways of mathematics enlightenment with parents.
Arithmetic: Let children help solve problems in life, which can not only cultivate children's mathematical application ability, but also give them a sense of accomplishment and make them like mathematics more. For example, taking children to the supermarket is a good opportunity to teach them to count. For example, when we see yogurt on the shelf in the supermarket, we can say to our children, "Baby, can you help mom with three bottles of yogurt? At this time, children can figure out what 3 is by themselves, which can not only cultivate their arithmetic ability, but also cultivate their practical ability and make them more independent. Helping the mother will also give the child confidence and maintain a long-term enthusiasm for learning.
Logic: Consciously guide children to discover the laws around them in life. For example, the color arrangement of the floor tiles is regular, and the patterns on the curtains are also arranged according to the rules. Seven days a week is also regular, and the seasons follow the cycle of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Ask children more questions. Today is Thursday, so what day is tomorrow? Why don't you go to school the day after tomorrow?
Geometry and direction: origami and building blocks are very effective and interesting ways to understand geometry and cultivate a sense of space. Children can be encouraged to build various spaces, such as an amusement park with entertainment facilities, a big shopping mall with delicious restaurants and so on. You can also play a treasure hunt with your children and tell them the location of the treasure with mathematical language instructions (front and back, up and down, left and right, inside and outside, etc.). ) to encourage children to search and explore independently. After the children are proficient in all directions, they can make a simple schematic diagram for their reference when they are looking for treasure.
