Under normal circumstances, you can learn Olympic Mathematics from the third grade of primary school. The main reasons are as follows: (1) Math knowledge in the first and second grades of primary school is easier to digest. In the past two years, primary school students have basically mastered counting, addition and subtraction within 100, multiplication formula, and understanding plane graphics. (2) From the perspective of psychological and thinking development, children aged 8 or 9 have initially possessed the ability and conditions to learn and accept logical reasoning; With these foundations, it is the best age to enter the third grade to learn Olympic Mathematics.

1. The most direct effect of learning Olympic Mathematics is to occupy a certain advantage in the choice of schools in junior and senior high schools.

Xiaoshengchu's choice of schools, especially the admission of private schools, has always attached importance to the Olympic Mathematics. General problems can no longer meet the selection of high-quality students by prestigious schools, so some Olympic math questions will be interspersed in the exam or interview. Most of the exams are basic questions for children to score, and the Olympic math questions open the gap between children. In addition, if children can win prizes in major cups, they will occupy a favorable position when choosing schools in junior and senior high schools.

2. Learning Olympic Mathematics can improve logical thinking ability.

Olympiad is different from ordinary mathematics and higher than ordinary mathematics. There is no ready-made formula for the Olympic math problem, but there are rules to follow, and the word "Qiao" is emphasized. Without analysis and judgment, logical reasoning and even "diaosi", it is impossible to complete the Olympic math problem. Therefore, learning olympiad is of great help to improve children's logical reasoning and abstract thinking ability.
