Children's mathematical thinking ability should be exercised from an early age, which will help children's intellectual development after preschool, affect their future mathematical learning ability and directly affect their mathematical achievements.
1, quantity
Including singing and counting. The number of songs is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ... Counting is how many children can find it, such as how many fingers there are. Both parents pay more attention to it, but often ignore the other one-measurement, including the perception of scales, weights and other units.
Step 2 calculate
Most parents may teach their children to add and subtract by snapping their fingers, which is not enough. We don't advocate that children must learn to calculate from an early age, but let them understand more in the process of calculation, instead of memorizing.
Step 3 classify
In order to develop children's thinking, we must attach importance to diversified classification. For example: a triangle, a circle, a triangle, you will classify triangles into one category; But change these three things, a blue triangle, a red circle and a red triangle, and classify the red ones not only by shape but also by color. This is the diversified classification.
Step 4 assemble
Since primary school, all calculations and concepts have been generated on the basis of set. If the concept of set is clear, it will be much better to solve problems in the future. When children perceive sets, they can analyze the correlation or complete difference between the two sets, which is also helpful for classification.
5. Time
In addition to knowing the clock, let the children know where the pointer goes 10 minutes. Let him feel the time and feel for himself how long 10 minutes is.
6. Space
In addition to letting children feel up, down, left, right, back and forth, they should also cultivate their spatial construction ability. Games like building blocks and puzzles are all about space construction. Building blocks are random, creative and three-dimensional space construction; It is a purposeful plane space construction to figure out what kind of pictures to put together in advance before the puzzle.
Step 7 be consistent
Cats correspond to puppies, puppies correspond to animals and so on. And finding the same and related correspondence is an online game that parents often arrange for their children.
Step 8 tidy up
Now parents pay more attention to children's circular sorting, such as triangle, circle, triangle and circle. Below you will know how triangles and circles go.
9. Summary
The meaning of abstract thinking is no longer discussed, how to cultivate it? For a simple example, parents can ask their children, "What do you think is the difference between what mom wears today and what she wears in peacetime?" Children should analyze the differences by thinking and comparing information one by one.
10, solving
The ultimate goal of mathematics is to solve problems. It is never used for reciting like language, and it is more reflected in the process of children solving problems. The process is the most important, but the result is not the most important.
