"Mathematics enlightenment" refers to cultivating children's sense of number and exercising their logical thinking ability, because mathematics is not just a simple mathematics we know, but actually it has many branches, such as graphics, calculation, space and so on. All belong to the category of mathematics. Therefore, it is not as simple as teaching children to count.
Hearing this, many parents are even more afraid. "If you can't learn math well, how can you educate your children? What if I'm wrong? " That's not true. Mathematics enlightenment is not to teach children mathematics, but to cultivate their interest in mathematics and gradually understand these abstract knowledge in life. How do children understand the mathematics that we adults know? Mathematics enlightenment needs to be gradual, which can be touched in life and games, so parents don't have to worry about not being able to do it.
"Mathematics Enlightenment" can not be ignored
"Mathematics" is closely related to our study and life, so it is very important to enlighten children on mathematics. So what are the important aspects?
1, which affects children's learning.
Mathematics is the foundation of other disciplines. If children have not developed a sense of numbers since childhood, or have not been exposed to mathematics education, then in the long run, children may encounter more problems in learning, and there may not be much difference in primary school, but as children grow up, the difference will gradually become obvious. Therefore, it is very important to do a good job of children's "mathematics enlightenment" from an early age.
2. Affect children's thinking ability.
Mathematics is abstract, but it is closely related to real life. It can help children to connect the abstract world with real life. For example, if you share a cake, a cake can be divided into many pieces, and friends can celebrate happily together. It can also make children clearly understand real life, which has an important impact on their study and life.
"Mathematics Enlightenment" should not be rushed.
Mathematics is very abstract. If children want to understand mathematics, it is necessary to combine mathematics with life and children's games, so that children can get in touch with the so-called "mathematical concepts" in actual situations and develop their sense of numbers and understanding of mathematics. This process needs to be guided slowly, and adults can't always be taught according to their ideas, because children's world and children's understanding ability are different from ours. Instead, they are forced to tell them "mathematics."
Then many parents will ask: How should "Mathematics Enlightenment" be carried out? How do we know if the child understands? This is also the actual operation and effect of mathematics enlightenment.
In fact, one thing to remember in the development of mathematics enlightenment is to "arouse children's interest". Only in ways that children are interested in can children cooperate and enlightenment proceed smoothly.
It is unrealistic to see the effect of enlightenment at once. Parents should not care too much about the results, but should pay more attention to the process of enlightenment. The child's growth is day by day, and you will be pleasantly surprised to find that one day the child suddenly said, "The two wheels of my toy car are missing!" " "Dad, why are my Altman missing two?" This is the effect that children begin to understand mathematics.
"Mathematics Enlightenment" Operation Guide
Parents have always wondered why some children have a talent for mathematics since childhood, while their own children are afraid of mathematics. In fact, children's interest in mathematics needs to be cultivated from an early age, that is, mathematics enlightenment should start from an early age. Children's mathematics enlightenment has many sensitive periods, which are divided into five stages, namely 0- 1 year, 1-3 years, 3-6 years, 6-9 years and 9- 12 years. The learning rhythm and depth of these five stages are different.
Children at different stages have different understanding and learning abilities, which means that "mathematics enlightenment" should have different emphasis. It will be more effective and practical to plan "mathematical enlightenment" in stages. Most importantly, parents need to grasp the sensitive period of children's mathematical enlightenment and carry out targeted training so that children can develop good mathematical thinking and ability.
