1 How do parents improve their children's mathematical thinking?
Take colorful math activities to improve children's learning enthusiasm.
With the advancement of the new curriculum reform, teachers should not only change their ideas, but also constantly learn and improve their cultural literacy and teaching ability in order to flexibly cope with possible situations in teaching. In the process of stimulating children's learning enthusiasm, teachers should innovate teaching methods, let children explore knowledge actively under the control of curiosity, deepen their knowledge and understanding of mathematics knowledge, change passive learning state into active inquiry learning state, and give full play to children's learning enthusiasm.
In math class, teachers should create colorful math activities and guide children to actively participate in them. Exploring and understanding knowledge in mathematical activities can make children's thinking always active and contribute to the development of mathematical thinking. For example, when children know numbers, teachers can let them have a literacy competition, which can fully stimulate their enthusiasm for participation and improve teaching efficiency in an active atmosphere. It is difficult to attract children's attention because they are young and let them study in the classroom. In mathematics teaching, children's enthusiasm for participation can be well mobilized by using mathematics activities. In the process of participating in activities, children's thinking is very active, and they will independently explore the mathematical knowledge needed in activities, thus improving children's mathematical thinking ability.
Game teaching promotes the development of children's mathematical thinking.
In children's mathematics teaching, to cultivate and develop children's mathematical thinking, teachers should stimulate their interest, fully mobilize students' learning enthusiasm, improve their mathematical learning ability in the process of exploring knowledge, and promote the formation and development of mathematical thinking. Children are full of strong curiosity about anything and knowledge, and this heartfelt desire to explore can support their long-term learning. In teaching, teachers can combine games with teaching, so that children can perceive mathematical knowledge in the process of participating in games, master knowledge through positive thinking, and let children play happily in games and gain gains continuously. The game teaching method of entertaining can stimulate children's enthusiasm for learning. When designing games, teachers should change the game mode according to different mathematical knowledge, so that children can always maintain a high degree of enthusiasm when participating in games and improve teaching efficiency.
For example, when children practice counting, the teacher can let them play the game of "passing the ball". When the ball is passed to a child, the child will continue to count down. In happy games, children can count correctly, which effectively promotes the development of their mathematical thinking. Games occupy a lot of time in children's daily activities. Children can easily and independently master mathematics knowledge in games, so they like to learn and explore mathematics.
2 mathematical thinking methods
Preschool teachers should update their mathematics teaching concepts.
Teachers should be clear that children's mathematical activities are a kind of preparatory learning, and it is a gradual process for children to initially establish the concept of numbers and form logical thinking. Early childhood is a critical period of human cognitive development. Children in this period are extremely active in mathematical thinking. Teachers use certain means to stimulate students' interest in learning and cultivate students' enthusiasm, initiative and creativity in learning mathematics. At the same time, there are essential differences between children's mathematics education and primary school mathematics. Teachers should change the traditional concept of mathematics education and the teaching tendency of attaching importance to logical thinking ability, emphasizing calculation and ignoring innovation and practice. Instead, we should learn the ability to solve problems on the basis of children's understanding of basic knowledge, attach importance to children's logical thinking ability, especially creativity, and let children form divergent and creative logical thinking from an early age.
For example, when Mingming counted building blocks, the teacher gave Mingming three building blocks and said, "Let's count these building blocks together, shall we?" Come 1-2-3 ",obviously count" 1-2-3 "with the teacher carefully. "How many pieces do we have?" Mingming looked at the teacher blankly and shook his head. The teacher went on to say, "didn't we count it just now?" Now count it yourself! " "1-2-3", "A * * *" How many building blocks are there? The teaching case of "I don't know" shows that teachers' mathematics teaching for children is not simply counting, but cultivating students' mathematical logical thinking ability. Therefore, teachers' concept of mathematics teaching must be updated.
Cultivating children's mathematical logical thinking ability in game teaching.
Games are a relaxing and enjoyable activity, and they are also the main teaching methods used in early childhood. Children's language education, music education and art education. Everyone can guide their knowledge through games, and so can math teaching. Because children are in the stage of fun, activity and inattention, it is necessary for teachers to use these characteristics of children to innovate teaching methods and cultivate mathematical logical thinking ability in games.
The "Guidelines for Kindergarten Work" also clearly points out that teachers should let children play while learning, and perceive how much, orientation, time and space in the game. If the teacher only teaches students to practice math problems, on the one hand, children will be bored with math, on the other hand, their mathematical logical thinking ability will not be well developed. Therefore, teachers vary from person to person, according to local conditions, and games are linked to teaching. The game contains mathematical logic, which promotes the game and thus realizes the cultivation of children's logical thinking ability. For example, to see who can measure the length of the table in his own way fastest, to see how long the table is, how wide the pencil box is, etc. These seemingly simple games do contain profound mathematical logic, and children will get different results by using different tools in the game, which is also the secret of mathematics.
3 Mathematical thinking method
Creating life situation and cultivating children's mathematical logical thinking ability.
Children in early childhood are full of curiosity, interest and desire to explore life. They want to know everything and try everything. Exploration is a child's instinctive impulse, and curiosity, thirst for knowledge and spirit of exploration are also children's remarkable characteristics. At the same time, mathematics also comes from life, and mathematics is everywhere in life. Therefore, teachers need to carry out teaching design according to children's own characteristics, and combine life situation with mathematics teaching content. The "Guidelines for Children's Teaching" points out that "science education should be closely linked with children's real life" and life situations should be introduced into the classroom. By simulating and reappearing life situations, children can experience the application of mathematics in life again and show themselves fully. Teachers can cultivate children's subtle mathematical and logical thinking ability through clever guidance, so that children can learn in a more real, happy and relaxed environment and form their own mathematical and logical thinking ability.
For example, teachers can organize a life shopping activity after training children's cognition of basic size, quantity, shape and color. In Let's Go Shopping together, the teacher plays the cashier, two children play mom and dad, one child plays the baby Tintin, and the family goes shopping together. Ding Ding went to the supermarket to buy many things, including bananas, oranges, erasers, pencils, milk and biscuits, and then went to the supermarket. Which ones are round? Which ones are rectangular? What color do you like best? What is fruit? What is stationery? And so on, let children perceive things through what they buy and classify things through their own cognitive ability, which to some extent cultivates children's mathematical and logical thinking ability.

4 Mathematical thinking method
Attach importance to mathematics language teaching
Mathematical language not only plays an important role in education, but also plays an important role in the development of mathematics. This is the language we must use in teaching. In mathematics learning, it is a tool for thinking communication, which is usually divided into symbols, characters and graphic languages. Symbolic language is a language expressed by mathematical symbols, including formulas and operational symbols, which is extremely concise, abstract and accurate. A symbol is not allowed to have two meanings.
Written language is the main language to describe mathematical theorems, concepts and proofs, and it is the most basic and important part of mathematical knowledge. Graphic language is a mathematical intuitive language, which is usually represented by graphics and accompanied by text descriptions. In many cases, the explanation is very quick and concise. Attention should be paid to the application of mathematical symbols, which can make students understand problems and textbooks more comprehensively and fully in language conversion.
Establish an effective thinking situation
Before learning new knowledge, students' minds are not blank, they already have the original cognitive structure, and they try to assimilate and understand new knowledge with the original cognitive structure. Students will constantly have cognitive conflicts in the process of learning, so as to constantly solve them. Mathematics teaching should guide and inspire students, find different thinking strategies to solve different problems and solve problems quickly.
Errors are an inevitable phenomenon in the learning process. Teachers should allow students to try and make mistakes, let students explore and solve problems in learning with their own unique methods and thinking, and understand knowledge more deeply.
