The counter of primary school students generally consists of a row of beads or buttons, each of which represents a number. Pupils can count and calculate by moving beads or pressing buttons. A counter usually has a display screen showing the current number. Some counters can also perform simple operations, such as addition and subtraction. In addition, counters usually have some supporting teaching materials, such as math cards and workbooks, to help primary school students learn math.
Add and subtract by counter;
Addition exercise: Set the counter to 0. Tell the students the increased number (for example, "We are going to add 3 now"). Ask the students to increase the number on the counter by a corresponding amount. Continue the next addition exercise until the students master the basic concept of addition.
Subtraction exercise: Set the counter to a number. Tell the students how much to reduce (for example, "We are going to reduce 2 now"). Ask the students to reduce the number on the counter by the corresponding number. Continue the next subtraction exercise until the students master the basic concept of subtraction. When practicing addition and subtraction, teachers can adopt different methods, such as using visual AIDS such as pictures or objects. In addition, teachers can also increase students' interest and improve their learning enthusiasm through games.
Advantages of primary school students using computers
It provides broader learning resources: computers can be connected to the Internet and provide rich learning resources for primary school students, such as online education platforms, e-books and educational games. These resources can help primary school students learn and master knowledge better.
Improve learning efficiency: Computers can help primary school students complete their homework and learning tasks faster. For example, using word processing software can improve writing efficiency, and using computing software can speed up mathematical calculation.
Enhance learning interest: Computers can present learning contents such as images, audio and video through multimedia technology, making learning more lively and interesting. This helps to stimulate primary school students' interest in learning and improve their learning motivation.
