How Children Learn Mathematics
Student Learning Diversity
Children learn mathematics in various ways. Emphasis and primary focus for the students' knowledge in mathematics is on instruction received at school and in the classroom. Teacher support plays a vital role in student development. Lessons can help students with: -Developing early number sense -Relationships between numbers 1 through 10 -Strategies for solving contextual problems Research shows that children learn mathematics best through classrooms that are structured around interactive activities, engagement, and investment in students' awareness and sense. Different strategies and approaches appeal and work differently depending on the student you are working with. In a large classroom with a variety of learners, it can become challenging and difficult to teach mathematics in such a way that all learners are being supported and reaching their full potential in the area of mathematics. However, through different strategies, it is possible to reach each student in the room in such a way that guides each of them. |
