3. A good math education needs to start very early, as
early as in elementary school. However, it is rather
clear that students are not learning math in a way
which will help them love it, hence often times, they
try to look for help with math.Consequently, it is not
unusual that students simply turn away from math,
and don't end up assimilating basic mathematical skill
which would help them tremendously in the
professional lives, in almost every single area.
4. It is not a mystery that the main reason why
students have little affection for math is because of
a deficient methodology lacking in meaningful
math problems . One capital mistake is the tendency
to entice memorization instead of critical math
reasoning, which certainly leads to failure, since
memorization doesn't provide the reach that true
mathematical understanding does. With this kind of
teaching method, it does not help the students that
much with math. Take for example the case of
Pythagoras Theorem.
5. The Pythagorean Theorem in geometry says that, for
a triangle in which one angle is a right angle (having
90 degrees or also known as a right angle), the
square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to
the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two
other sides of the triangle. In equation form, it is
often expressed as a2 +b2 = c2.
6. We can say that regardless the appealing appearance
of the formula, instead of memorizing it, it would be
obviously more productive to discuss how the formula
is derived, or at least why it is plausible that it is
true. He or she might talk on the history of the
theorem, and might need to illustrate some drawings.
In addition, presenting it in a story-like manner would
make math more interesting for kids. As we probably
have experienced before, a good story usually makes
it up for a difficult concept, because it makes math
much more enjoyable.
7. Another fun mode of educating kids in mathematics
is through online games. There are quite a big
number of websites which offer interactive games
that help your kid understand the concepts of
mathematics while at the same time, making learning
an enjoyable experience. Not only free material is
available online. Sometimes, quality material can be
purchased at reasonable prices, which could really
make a difference. Math doesn't get any easier with
all the resources available nowadays.
8. In today's world it is clear that not all the
responsibility of math learning is on the teachers.
Parents too play an important role in the development
of a kidýs learning process. There was one parent in
California who was struggling to teach her kid about
the various denominations of the dollar. Instead of
just letting her daughter memorize how the coins
look like and how much it is equivalent to, she set up
an imaginary "toy store" wherein she tries to "buy
toys" from her kid.
9. For mathematics to be entertaining, and to help you
deal with math with your kids, mathematics should
be presented in such a way that kids would
remember the concepts and formulas easily.
Creativity is the key, aside from having a full
understanding of the principles behind.
