How old is it appropriate for children to learn Olympic Mathematics?
Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to start learning Olympic Mathematics in the third grade of primary school, that is, around the age of 10.

In fact, this also depends on the children's situation, because there are no 100% things, and some children have an abnormal talent and interest in mathematics since childhood, because interest is the best teacher for children.

When children began to learn Olympic Mathematics in the third grade, they had been studying in school for two years and had a basic understanding and calculation method of mathematics. In addition, at this time, children are also in the transition period of thinking mode. At this time, training their thinking and problem-solving ideas will have different effects.

Essence of Olympic mathematics

1 welfare

The Olympic Mathematics is relatively in-depth, and the vigorous development of mathematical olympiad has greatly stimulated children's interest in learning mathematics, which has become a useful activity to guide them to be positive, explore actively and grow healthily. There are many practical problems, such as counting, graph theory, logic, pigeon hole principle and so on.

To solve this kind of problem, it is generally necessary to analyze and summarize the mathematical significance of the actual problem, abstract the actual problem into a mathematical problem, and then use the corresponding mathematical knowledge and methods to solve it.

2. Function

In this process of constructing mathematical model, students' ability to look at and deal with practical problems from a mathematical point of view can be effectively cultivated, students' awareness and ability to solve practical problems with mathematical language and models can be improved, and students' ability to reveal mathematical concepts hidden in practical problems and their relationships can be improved.

In this creative thinking process, students can see the practical function of mathematics, feel the charm of mathematics and enhance their sensitivity to the beauty of mathematics. Today, with the emphasis on quality education, this educational function of Olympic mathematics has more important practical significance.
