What is the meaning of numbers (what is the practical meaning of mathematics)
Hello parents!

This section mainly talks about "how to help children understand the concept of numbers".

First of all, I want to remind you that the concept of number is not just to teach children to count. The core of the concept of number is to understand the corresponding relationship between things and numbers. For example, 3 can correspond to 3 oranges and 3 cups, which is the actual meaning of numbers. When counting, you just need to remember the order of the numbers. For example, you know that 1 is followed by 2, and 2 is followed by 3. If a child can count fluently from 1 to 10, but doesn't know how many objects 1, 2, 3 correspond to, it doesn't mean that he understands the concept of numbers. From the above explanation, I believe you can see that if a child understands the concept of number and knows that 3 can represent three oranges, three cups or three eggs, it shows his abstract thinking.

So the five stages of concept development:

The first stage: "Distinguish between more and less"

As early as 1 year-old, children began to show what I wanted more about their favorite foods and toys. The pile I wanted more, both in action and language, showed that they already had the concept of more and less;

The second stage: "oral counting"

In other words, children can count to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 until 10 or 100. Mental arithmetic ability is closely related to children's language development and family education. Under the guidance of many parents, it can be achieved by using the rhythm and repetition of numbers. Can count to 100, relying on the bridge function of oral calculation in the second stage, on the basis that children can distinguish between more and less, you can do some questions and answers slightly, or do some similar changes and interactions with objects, and children will develop rapidly to the third stage;

The third stage: "count by intuition"

Counting by intuition usually means that children can tell the number of objects instantly by intuition for numbers below 5;

The fourth stage: "referring to things and saying numbers"

, that is, points, that is, pointing to an object while verbally saying several points, most children can point to 2 or 3 at the age of two and a half;

The fifth stage: "take things by number"

Tell the child the numbers and ask him to take out the corresponding number of objects. This stage is actually the reverse process of the fourth stage "index". After mastering the fourth and fifth stages, the concept of children's logarithm has basically established a clear cognition. Most children can count to 100 when they are five or six years old, and they can say numbers by pointing at objects. Moreover, the logarithm can be taken according to the numbers, but the whole learning rhythm of children is not uniform. Usually 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 is relatively easy to master, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 is relatively difficult,/kloc-0 1- 10/0 is mastered, and 65438 is learning.
