text | The best choice for early childhood education mothers
If a child cannot learn mathematics, it must be because there is something wrong with the method . Because she used the right method, her 6-year-old niece who couldn't learn math has now become a math genius.
My sister-in-law said that I should have learned this a long time ago, but fortunately it is not too late!
Math questions are too difficult! I can’t explain it to my children no matter how I tell it.
11-2, knowing that 1-2 is not enough to subtract, I went to the tenth place and borrowed one, and then asked my son.
10 One was borrowed, how many are left?
2 [Halo]
10 minus 1 equals 2?
is not! 10-1, 10 can be decomposed into 1 and 9, leaving 9
. What is the result?
19
Where did 10 come from? [Halo], wasn’t one of 10 borrowed?
9
This is the conversation between my sister-in-law and my nephew. I listened anxiously. Every time I did a question, my heart was in my throat. Before I did the question, my mother was kind and my son was filial. After I did the question, my voice became louder and louder, and the scene became more and more intense. The more out of control the child becomes, the less timid and quiet his voice becomes. My mother became more and more angry and her voice became louder and louder.
Have you ever seen or felt the same way about being yelled at every time you do homework?
?
So where does the problem occur?
Children know all the simple and intuitive questions, and immediately become confused as soon as the question type is changed. The problem lies in logical thinking. The cultivation of logical thinking should start when the baby is 3 years old.
Careful parents will find that children begin to be interested in mathematics when they are around 2 years old, such as big and small, inside and outside spatial concepts, tall and short, one, two, three and other simple counting...
Yes, "The Most Powerful Brain" judge and professor at Peking University School of Psychology Wei Kunlin said: "Children are born with mathematical intuition, and children as young as 2 years old can start to be exposed to mathematics."
And the niece is now 6 years old, and the parents do not pay special attention to cultivating their children's logical thinking. There is no "logic" guidance in life.
used to play around when he wasn't in kindergarten. My brother and sister-in-law believed in free-range play. I think children should play before the age of 3. Learning is a matter for the future. When you go to school, leave it to the teacher.
is fine now, lacks basic cognitive ability, plus lacks logical thinking ability, and are resistant to mathematics, makes it difficult to learn mathematics.
When I was in kindergarten, I could do the calculation clearly on the "oral arithmetic question card", but I couldn't do anything when the question types were changed. Now I am in the first grade, and I pay more attention to the change of question types. My mother and teacher were really anxious. No matter what, I couldn't do anything. Won't.
Parents should remember that on the way to raising children, when you realize that the method of is wrong, you must break it down in time and change the method to .
My sister-in-law and I said that if you yell once for every homework assignment, the child's brain will become slower over time and he will not know what is right or wrong because of you shouting. This will only make the child more and more disgusted and have a bad memory. Naturally, you want to escape and resist. If you want your child to be faster, you should find a way to make him fall in love with learning and take the initiative to explore . It is important to have the enthusiasm to learn .
I remember there was a dinner party when my son was 3 and a half years old. My grandma gave the two children 3 quick-answer questions:
(1) 1 + 2 = __
(2) 1 + __ = 3
(3) __ + 2 = 3
first My niece was very fast and immediately said the answer was 3.
She thought about the second and third question for a long time but did not dare to tell the answer, but her son immediately said it was 2.
The third answer is 1.
Seeing that my niece hadn’t spoken yet, I deliberately asked my son why? How did you calculate it? This is to buy time for my little niece.
The son said, I didn’t calculate it! Isn’t it just 1+2=3? , who will fill these two vacancies?
This suddenly made me realize that my son relied on visual memory to solve this question. Not bad for his age.
Even after such a long time, my niece still hasn’t given the answer!
In fact, for question (1), this is the most basic addition knowledge point. However, for (2) and (3), although it is still addition, what is tested is the child's reverse thinking ability of .
And this ability is what children should have.
Sun Weigang, a well-known Chinese mathematics educator, said: "What the teacher gives you is what is left in your brain after a few years and you have forgotten all the mathematics knowledge. It is thinking! This kind of thinking will solve the problem with children in the future. The ability of the problem is closely related.
This is also the potential competitiveness of .
When it comes to this, my sister-in-law regrets it.
I said you should stop forcing your children to do it. Those rigid questions, my niece is now in the category of with poor basic knowledge, , , chaotic and unsystematic thinking, , we need to pay more attention to the cultivation of these two aspects, and the children's math scores will definitely improve. Improved.
① Cultivate children's interest in mathematics, focusing on interest and supplementing by teaching.
My niece likes to play with mobile phones. My sister-in-law also controls this aspect, but the effect is not good and it arouses hatred, so I keep my son on it. I also arranged one for my little niece using the "Logical Thinking Intelligent Learning Machine". It is as big as the tablet phone but does not hurt my eyes.
The logical thinking training learning machine
Why I think this is suitable for my little niece, first of all, my son has been using it since he was 3 years old. It is really helpful.
This set of learning machines can satisfy children’s independent operation. It has buttons , touch screen sounds , flashing lights , and beautiful appearance bear shape , which completely satisfies children. The desire to operate electronic products. The content of
is even more worth having, including major topics, 120 pages of question cards, and 720 graded question banks from easy to difficult to enhance the mathematics and logical thinking intelligence of preschool children.
Sure enough, with it, my little niece no longer thinks about playing with her mobile phone. She likes it because of her good looks.
Guided by the simple training card content, the little niece found confidence in the process of playing. , in the advanced process. In the game of he likes mathematics knowledge more and more.
Of course, the content of this set of logical thinking training machines includes a lot of cognitive knowledge and question types so that the child's comprehensive ability can be improved. Systematically greatly improved .
The operation process is simple and interesting
My sister-in-law said that this child has changed a lot. no longer resists for mathematics. When encountering problems, knows how to think about . The teacher also noticed his changes. Especially in observation ability , analysis and reasoning ability and concentration .
Yes, such diversified logical thinking training can certainly stimulate and inspire children. is fun and informative.
rechargeable model, especially convenient.
also recommends it to everyone. Children around 3 years old are in the golden period of logical thinking development. I hope that such interesting and informative teaching aids can help children improve with twice the result with half the effort. Click "Go and have a look" below to get it.
In this way, the logical thinking ability has been improved, and the children are no longer as disgusted as before when doing math problems and don't know how to start.
But after all, my niece has entered elementary school, the diversity of question types should be caught even more.
We all know that when we were in school, mathematics was divided into mathematics and geometry.
Many children cannot understand geometry problems no matter how they analyze them. The application problems in math problems are even more complicated. Why is this?
Children taught by the same teacher have varying abilities .
On the basis of mastering the basic knowledge, children with stronger ability to solve practical problems must be children with stronger analysis, reasoning and judgment abilities, because such logical thinking determines the children's response to question types And depth 's strain and resolution capabilities . This is the second point we are about to talk about, "depth optimization, from point to surface."
② Cultivate children's divergent thinking, from shallow to deep, from point to surface, covering all aspects.
It is absolutely impossible to learn knowledge points just like a dragonfly scratching the surface.
This is the same reason why many children know that 1+1=2, but conversely, 2-1 does not know the answer.
For a knowledge point, we must let children form divergent thinking , and then understand the derived question types thoroughly .
To give a simple example, my son is about 3 and a half years old. When playing with building blocks with him, I will intentionally guide him to explore some knowledge related to future learning, but I will not force him to memorize this or that, because he has finished memorizing. I don’t understand how it came about, how to change it, and I can’t do it anymore when the question type changes.
I will draw a big circle in the middle of the blackboard and write different numbers, take 9 as an example! Then I asked him to find friends. If the two numbers become good friends and get the middle number, they can form their own teams. See how many small teams you can form.
Then after the little guy tried countless times, he got the answer below.
This is the divergence of knowledge , that is to say, children have begun to study the addition of numbers, explore their sums, and clearly know that there is not just one situation where the sum equals 10, but there are many kinds of numbers. The combination. What kinds are there? In the process of exploration, I believe that the children have already remembered it solidly. Decomposition and combination within
10
It is not recommended to memorize these "number decompositions" by rote, although many kindergarten teachers still require children to memorize them mechanically.
If you want to guide your children well, this requires parents to have divergent thinking and be able to guide their children clearly, so that the children can clearly understand a knowledge point and learn to draw inferences about other situations .
I think everyone’s question now must be how to guide teachers and I am not a professional guide like you. We really don’t have so many ideas in our minds. One is that we can’t think of it. The second one is that even if we think of it, we don’t know how to help the children. understand.
It doesn’t matter, my sister-in-law is like this too, and many parents are like this. What to do? Of course, uses the auxiliary tool . Leave professional matters to professionals.
It doesn’t matter if we don’t know how to do it, but we can learn how to do it for the sake of our children.
③Use an interesting and life-friendly way to help children understand the meaning of the questions and apply the knowledge they have learned.
Why don’t children face many problems? Is it because you don’t understand? What should I do if I don’t understand? is another way for children to understand.
Many parents are very interesting. They will complain about why their children’s questions are so difficult, but they won’t. Can I use this when I grow up?
Children are the hope of the future. Learning is not just for exams. You have to understand this. If you force your children to study, they will only lose their motivation to learn early. Losing the right to explore a better life in the future.
We study to and apply , so that we can have stronger ability to make everything work for us. Use knowledge to solve practical problems instead of just knowing 1+1=2.
I remember there was such a question in the "Super Mathematical Thinking Course" taught by my father, a Silicon Valley engineer.
He asked the children why the stone pillars of ancient Greek temples were cylindrical and the legs of elephants were cylindrical. Why not choose trident columns and square columns?
Regarding knowledge, we need to let children know what it is and why it is .
Then that day we also did this kind of exploration. The children started to fold paper, and then prepared books and placed them one by one.
Try to put the book on the corresponding shaped column
As a result, we came to the conclusion that cylinder has the strongest load-bearing capacity!
The other two have been crushed, only the cylinder is still standing there.
For word problems that the child does not understand, we can guide him to draw a picture and the child will understand.
I remember the last time my eldest nephew encountered a question like this:
Xiaohong and Xiaoming went to the farmer's uncle's orchard to help them pick apples. They picked 50 apples in total. Xiaohong picked 2 more apples than Xiaoming. Ask Xiaohong about picking apples. How many? How many did Xiao Ming pick?
’s little niece was instantly confused and didn’t know how to start. Later, I guided him to model and draw pictures . As soon as the picture was drawn, the child immediately knew how to do it!
Look, the reason why children don’t know is that we don’t guide and teach them in a way that they can understand.
The child has easily learned many questions while we were guiding him. Now, no matter what the question is, he cannot be stumped.
Scholars from Stanford University in the United States further researched and found that children who solve mathematical problems through drawing methods tend to have excellent mathematics scores.
These good methods are not found in textbooks. Parents who feel it is necessary to stimulate their children's talent in mathematics and geometry can give their children this book "Super Mathematical Thinking Lesson from Silicon Valley Engineer Dad" which is divided into two volumes to cover mathematics and geometry that children 4-8 years old should understand. Provide thorough enlightenment on all issues. It’s very fun. With this set of books, you will find that mathematics can be so interesting.
Mathematical thinking includes: numbers, comparison of size, comparison of weight, spatial orientation, spacing issues, permutations and combinations.
Catalog
Geometric thinking includes: shape, graphic rules, symmetry and rotation, segmentation and combination, spatial thinking .
Catalog
is also thoughtfully equipped with “training cards” to facilitate children’s exploration and verification of conjectures.
Each of these themes is completed in 5 steps. Including: parents must read , knowledge points learning , thinking ability training , STEAM world , learning checklist .
gives you a simple example: when
explains "shape", the first part of presents to you the "Must Read for Parents".
In this part, parents can clearly understand what we should focus on guiding our children to do next? Including understanding shapes, creating shapes and applying shapes in life.
Part 2: Knowledge point learning.
The author of this part relates the theme to life, allowing children to discover shapes in life, such as watermelon , eggs, lollipops , pizza, and the clocks, ladders, etc. that we can use. Roadblocks, cards and steel bridges, football , dice, bricks and more.
During the process of exploration, the children discovered that they were not solving a math problem, but exploring our lives. This is the meaning of mathematics .
Knowledge point learning
Part 3: Cultivating thinking ability.
The cultivation of thinking ability is more about examining children's concentration and observation ability . Encourage children to look for shapes in scenes from our lives.
How many shapes can you find?
In addition, to cultivate children's divergent thinking, give children a thumbtack, a thin line, a pencil, and ask the children, can you draw a circle?
So we started exploring and finally worked together to complete the circle drawing method. Children know that by fixing a point and drawing a line at a certain length from the fixed point, they can get a circle.
The process of drawing a circle
continued to explore, we found that if we pick a few points on the circle and link them, it becomes a polygon. For example: triangle, quadrilateral, hexagon, etc. Isn't
fun? The children did not feel tired during the exploration process, but felt that they had more to learn.
Part 4: STEAM world.
This part is the cylinder load-bearing test we mentioned earlier.
Part 5: Study Checklist.
This part allows children to self-evaluate, which helps them build self-confidence. It also allows parents to understand their children’s mastery at a glance.
Every knowledge point is interesting and fun so that children can master this knowledge point thoroughly.
The two books are full of useful information. This is how my little niece gradually fell in love with mathematics and developed a strong interest in mathematics.
Now whether in the class or in the grade group. Her grades are among the best. What’s more important is to maintain your curiosity about mathematics and exploration.
So if you are afraid that your child will not be interested in mathematics. Insufficient knowledge, analytical skills, and problem-solving abilities. Feel free to try this method. Click "Go See" below to purchase.
We know that "a good start is half the success", and the learning stage of preschool and first and second grade is the golden period for improving children's logical thinking, and it is also the stage for laying the foundation for mathematics. If parents do a good job at this stage, their children's future mathematics learning will be easy and burden-free.
So remember that if you have a baby around 3 years old at home, you must do "logical thinking enlightenment", and if you have a baby between 4-8 years old, you must help them build strong mathematical thinking.
