First of all, let's analyze the reasons why children are not good at math.
Fear of difficulties, math phobia
Mathematics is regarded as a difficult subject. Abstract formula theorems, complicated operation processes, ingenious problem-solving methods that can't be imagined anyway, math exams that have been defeated repeatedly, horrible scores and so on. Children are afraid of math and have no confidence in themselves. I want to hide when I see math. Every time I do my homework, math comes last. I have a serious math phobia. Run every time you encounter a problem. After a long time, your math scores will naturally decline.
There are no good math study habits and methods.
Personal study habits and methods are also important factors that affect children's math scores. Some students lack the ability to study and think independently, just recite formulas and theorems mechanically, without really understanding the principles and logic behind them; Other students rely too much on the guidance of teachers and parents and lack the ability to think and solve problems independently. In addition, some students lack patience and perseverance in the learning process, and mathematics needs to study hard, emphasizing "multiple solutions to one problem". If they encounter inexplicable problems, they will give up writing directly or fill in at will, which will only lead to a sharp decline in their final grades.
Thinking logic ability can't keep up
Logical thinking ability is a kind of cognitive ability that children need when solving mathematical problems, which involves thinking processes such as analysis, reasoning, induction and deduction. With the learning of mathematics content becoming more and more difficult, some students become stronger because of the abstraction and logic of mathematics courses. However, some students are still in the stage of intuitive thinking, and it is difficult to understand abstract concepts, comprehensively analyze topics, sum up characteristics and solve problems, which leads to a decline in math scores.
Ignore the basics and focus on challenging problems.
Some children have excellent mathematical thinking, but they always fail the exam. In fact, it is because students despise the study and training of basic knowledge, basic skills and basic methods. I'm only interested in difficult problems. In order to show your "achievements", it was just a sea of tactics, but I didn't realize that a small mistake in calculation would lead to a loss of points in the whole question, and all the hard thinking in front was in vain. In addition, the calculation speed is also an important factor affecting the test results. The time gained by skilled operation can be used to think and examine more problems.
So what methods can improve children's math ability?
Collect wrong questions and cultivate correct thinking habits
In the process of sorting out the wrong questions, it is also a way to consolidate the correct thinking of solving problems. Moreover, we should not only collect wrong questions, but also classify them. When reviewing, we should browse the questions according to the categories of wrong questions and cultivate correct thinking habits. In this way, the next time you encounter the same type of questions, you can quickly recall the problem-solving ideas, bypass the error-prone points, and answer the questions smoothly.
Understanding mathematical concepts and operations with the help of life scenes
Life is closely related to mathematics. Parents can use specific scenes in life to help their children understand abstract numbers. This is very helpful for children to understand big application problems. Because the topics of application problems are common mathematical problems in life, such as the calculation of time and speed, or three kinds of preferential packages, it is all mathematics in life to compare which package is more cost-effective according to demand. Parents should take their children to solve these problems together, and it will be a piece of cake to wait for such life application topics in the examination room.
