Look at children's ability to learn mathematics.
1, if children's math learning ability is strong, learning is necessary.
2. If the child's math learning ability is poor, there is no need to learn.
The following specific analysis:
Most parents of primary school students will ask this question, because middle school students generally don't study Olympic Mathematics, and there is no Olympic Mathematics class (unless they take part in competitions). Only by learning textbook knowledge and textbook extension well can we cope with the senior high school entrance examination and college entrance examination.
After children go to primary school, Olympiad puzzles parents as much as English. Is it necessary to learn? What grade did you start studying in? Some parents, in particular, are anxious to see some children enrolled in the Olympic Mathematics class to learn Olympic Mathematics.
1, if children's math learning ability is strong, learning is necessary.
After children learn math well in textbooks, they can learn Olympic Mathematics, which is conducive to the development of children's thinking. Because the Olympic math problems are all curved, they can't be done according to normal thinking. The children have learned Olympic mathematics and actually have another way to solve the problem.
Learning olympiad also helps children solve math problems.
However, if you don't take part in the competition, you don't need to report to the Special Olympics class, just learn from your own teacher.
Because olympiad is not an outline exam, it is generally not taken (some key middle school entrance examinations are divided into classes), and the purpose of learning is to develop children's thinking. When solving a problem, you will not stick to a problem-solving idea, which will help solve mathematical problems and make your child's thinking more active.
How do you know if your child is good at math?
See if the child can do a slightly more difficult math problem, especially when doing additional math problems, you can see whether the child's math thinking is strong.
Some children can do additional math problems, and some children can do them every time the teacher talks.
2. If the child's math learning ability is poor, there is no need to learn.
Every child has individual differences, some children are interested in language, some children are interested in mathematics, some children are interested in music and art, and so on. Our parents should focus on cultivating children according to their interests, so that children can become talents more easily.
If children are not good at math, they usually do the basic knowledge slowly, and it takes a long time to think about the more difficult questions or the teacher can talk about them, so there is no need to learn Olympic Mathematics again.
Because it is more difficult for such children to learn Olympic Mathematics, not only can they not improve their math scores, but they may also lose their confidence in learning mathematics and have fear.
In our adults' view, many Olympic math problems can be solved by setting X to solve equations, but in primary schools, we don't use equation solutions, but use the methods taught by Olympic math teachers.
In a word, learning Olympic Mathematics well depends on children's mathematics learning ability. It is of course necessary to learn Olympic Mathematics, develop children's thinking and improve their interest in learning. If children have difficulties in math learning, there is no need to learn Olympic mathematics, which will only increase the pressure and may also make children afraid of math.
