Children's understanding of mathematics is a process from concrete to abstract. They need to use all kinds of intuitive materials to form the necessary perceptual knowledge so as to gradually abstract and summarize the concepts, principles and methods of mathematics. In this process, intuitive teaching methods play an important role. For example, when learning the concept of multiplication, in order to let students understand the meaning of multiplication accurately, it is necessary to establish students' perceptual knowledge by placing objects and looking at pictures, and then abstract the meaning of multiplication. "For every 3 piles, put 4 piles, how many in total?"
3+3+3+3
Four 3 3×4
Ask the students to take out the stick as required, then look at the meaning of the stick and talk about how to calculate by addition. Finally, it shows that the addition of four 3s means that there are four 3s, which can be expressed by multiplication, that is, 3×4. In this process, as a teaching method, stick plays an intermediary role in the process of students' understanding and serves as a bridge for students to understand abstract knowledge.
Second, teaching methods are indispensable tools for teachers' teaching activities.
In primary school mathematics teaching, teachers need to consider the teaching method when organizing classroom teaching and designing teaching methods. Only when teachers are familiar with and master the structure and functions of various teaching methods and use them correctly can they give full play to the leading role of organizers in teaching. Teachers need to properly choose and use teaching methods to reveal teaching contents, effectively inspire students to think and cultivate students' interest in learning mathematics.
Thirdly, the reform and renewal of teaching methods is an important part of the decimal education reform.
The reform of mathematics teaching in primary schools involves many aspects, such as teaching purpose, teaching content, teaching methods and so on. In recent years, people pay more and more attention to the reform and update of teaching methods. The practice of reform has made people realize that teaching with blackboard and chalk has long been unsuitable for the reform of modern teaching methods, and the application of various teaching methods and modern teaching means has added vitality to the reform of mathematics teaching in primary schools. The introduction and development of some teaching methods are marked by introducing new teaching methods and attaching importance to the application of teaching methods. For example, attaching importance to the use of learning tools and strengthening students' operational activities in primary school mathematics teaching will promote the reform of primary school mathematics teaching and form activity teaching method and model teaching method.
