Mathematics is not only an important science, but also a basic science, which has the characteristics of surpassing specific scientific and being universally applicable. Mathematics is very useful to our daily life; Learning mathematics is conducive to better cultivating the ability to think and solve problems. These are all facts and the benefits of learning mathematics. But for a primary school student, talking about this is tantamount to listening to the truth. Maybe they can't feel it or understand it.

Expand knowledge:

Mathematical English: Mathematics, from the ancient Greek μ? θξμα(máthēma)； Often abbreviated as math or maths, it is a discipline that studies concepts such as quantity, structure, change, space and information.

Mathematics is a universal means for human beings to strictly describe and deduce the abstract structure and mode of things, and can be applied to any problem in the real world. All mathematical objects are artificially defined in essence. In this sense, mathematics belongs to formal science, not natural science. Different mathematicians and philosophers have a series of views on the exact scope and definition of mathematics.

Mathematics plays an irreplaceable role in the development of human history and social life, and it is also an indispensable basic tool for studying and studying modern science and technology.

Development history

Mathematics (hanyu pinyin: shùXué；; ; Greek: μ α θ η μ α κ; English: mathematics or maths), whose English comes from the ancient Greek word μθξμα(máthēma), has the meaning of learning, learning and science. Ancient Greek scholars regarded it as the starting point of philosophy and the basis of learning.

In addition, there is a narrow and technical meaning-"mathematical research". Even in its etymology, its adjective meaning is used to refer to mathematics whenever it is related to learning.

Its plural form in English and plural form in French plus -es constitute mathématiques, which can be traced back to the neutral plural mathematic in Latin and translated by Cicero from the Greek plural τ α α θ ι α κ. (ta mathē matiká). In ancient China, mathematics was called arithmetic, also called arithmetic, and finally it was changed to mathematics. Arithmetic in ancient China was one of the six arts.

Mathematics originated from the early production activities of human beings, and the ancient Babylonians had accumulated some mathematical knowledge, which could be applied to practical problems. As far as mathematics itself is concerned, their mathematical knowledge is only obtained through observation and experience, and there is no comprehensive conclusion and proof, but their contribution to mathematics should also be fully affirmed.
