Methods of teaching writing numbers and comparing them
It is best to teach writing numbers using notebooks on a printed basis, because the cells are lined larger – the cells are 7×7 mm, which is one and a half times larger than in a regular one. Preparatory work begins with tracing the outlined drawings, and then coloring them. After this, a large number of exercises are performed on tracing lines, borders, and sample notes. After such preparation, independent writing of numbers is performed.
Teaching counting objects
The overwhelming majority of modern children entering first grade already have the skill of oral counting. Although mistakes are possible, for example, after the number 7 they call 9, after 3 they call 5, etc. Therefore, to learn and clarify the order of words-numerals when counting, various tasks are used, in particular, with handouts.
Methodology for the formation of concepts of natural numbers and the number zero
The concept of a natural number is introduced as a member of the initial segment of a natural sequence of numbers. Therefore, it is important for each student to learn what each number is called and how it is designated by a printed and written digit.
Basic principles of teaching problem solving to primary school students
The pre-numerical period is preparatory to the study of numeration and the first ten. During this period, it is necessary to identify the stock of mathematical knowledge and skills of each child entering school and prepare them for further work.
Mathematics lessons in a small school
A small school is a school with a small number of students, and therefore it organizes classes of children of different ages, with a small number of students. In such a school, one teacher works with several classes at the same time. Small schools are most often primary, but can be incomplete secondary and secondary. Usually, such schools are opened in rural areas. In our country, there are several thousand small schools. Such a school is similar in its way of life to a large family – each student is well known and helped.
Testing and assessing students’ knowledge, skills and abilities
Knowledge testing plays an important role in the educational process as feedback. It is a necessary element of the teacher’s work. The following types of control are used in the school: preliminary, current, periodic and final.
Preparing a teacher for a lesson
The success or failure of a lesson largely depends on the preparation that the teacher will conduct. This preparation consists of two stages – planning a system of lessons on a topic and planning each specific lesson.
Game forms of conducting lessons
A didactic game is a type of educational activity that models the studied object, phenomenon, or process. The purpose of a didactic game is to stimulate students’ cognitive interest and activity. The subject of the game is usually human activity.
Math lesson in elementary school
When planning the educational process, the teacher must first determine what program and what textbooks he will work with the students. Currently, there are several such programs and many textbooks.
Mental development of primary school students in the process of learning mathematics
As noted above, the goal of teaching mathematics is to develop the thinking of schoolchildren. L.S. Vygotsky pointed out that with the beginning of learning, thinking moves to the center of the child’s mental development and becomes decisive in the system of other mental functions.
Psychological and pedagogical features of teaching mathematics to primary school students
Teaching primary school students will be successful if the teacher has the skills that follow from psychological and pedagogical knowledge about the features of attention. Usually, an ordinary teacher uses the technique of setting attention when he says: “Be attentive.” This setting is designed for children’s voluntary attention and requires some volitional effort from them, so they quickly get tired and distracted. This setting only works for a short time. If the teacher starts asking the student who is currently distracted, then, of course, he cannot answer. The teacher starts making a remark to the student, reproaches him. This leads to an increase in mental stress, causes negative emotions in the student. How to avoid this?
Construction of a basic mathematics course
The initial course of mathematics has its own peculiarities of its structure. The basis of the course is the arithmetic of natural numbers and basic quantities. Then come the elements of geometry and algebra, which, if possible, are included in the system of arithmetic knowledge. However, geometry and elements of algebra do not constitute special sections of the initial course of mathematics, but are organically connected with the arithmetic material.
Objectives and tasks of primary teaching of mathematics
Before considering the goals and objectives of teaching mathematics to modern primary school students, it is worth recalling how V.A. Sukhomlinsky understood them. In his book “A Conversation with a Young School Principal,” he wrote that the task of primary school is to teach a child to write, count, and read fluently. By the end of the second year of study, a student should forever remember the multiplication table and perform all arithmetic operations within 100. And in the third grade, he should remember all combinations of arithmetic operations within 1000. Although more than 40 years have passed since then, the author believes that Sukhomlinsky’s opinion has not lost its relevance.
Methods of teaching mathematics in primary grades as a pedagogical science
The methodology of teaching mathematics in primary grades is one of the private didactics. And didactics is defined as a theory of learning that studies the content, methods and forms of learning. It studies the learning process at a theoretical level. Private didactics, or methods of teaching various subjects, study the features of teaching specific subjects.
Development of primary school students in the process of teaching mathematics
Thinking is understood as the cognitive activity of the individual, which is characterized by a generalized and mediated reflection of the surrounding reality in its essential connections and relationships. When children come to school, they still have primitive thinking. Their judgments combine the most diverse incredible ideas about the surrounding world. For example, a 6-year-old child believes that “The sun does not fall because it is hot.” Therefore, the most important task of school education is the development of children’s thinking.
Determining the degree of development of certain qualities of a child for successful learning at school (list)
Readiness for school is the degree of formation of certain qualities of a child for successful learning at school. Preparation for school is a set of activities aimed at forming the child’s readiness for learning at school. First of all, readiness for school includes 3 large blocks: knowledge, general awareness of a 6-7 year old child entering school, psychological readiness for school, level of physical health.
