The
main thing in today’s lessons – the importance of exposing students to concrete
hands- on experiences. Up till today, I have learnt the four ways in how
students learn Maths:
- Visualization
- Be aware of patterns
- Number sense
- Metacognition
“Children learn by manipulation of
concrete materials.”
Today is about whole numbers: use the 10-frame to teach Maths concepts. I have learnt a skill which is
to use story at the beginning of the Math lesson. I learnt how to use the
10-frame (paper, egg cartons, commercial materials, ice tray) to find the total
sum of three different numbers. The usage of concrete hands- on materials when
working with whole numbers. (Addition). One cannot mix nouns and adjective
together. They are two different things.
Some of the benefits of using the 10-frame:
·
Teach number bonds
·
To understand conservation
·
To understand one-to-one correspondence (fundamental and it's important)
·
Place values
·
Teach counting
