We started class with a “mind reading”
game.
Think of two numbers |
The game was attention-grabbing. The learning outcome children will be able:
1 ü to
practice subtraction
ü See
the pattern
ü Communication
skill
I agree with Prof Yeap's thought that to teach Maths the teacher’s role is very
important. During my maths era, my
teachers taught multiplication not using Bruner Theory (if they had , I would have done
better). Most of the teachers
during my days in school were basically using their previous knowledge to teach
us Maths. Even today, I explain Maths to my children using my previous method.
Something new : I would like to say this sentence when I
am teaching my child next time.
¾ / 3 = ¼
3 fourth shared equally
among 3 = 1 fourth
The geoboard is a good therapeutic way
to end the class as we were getting engrossed in designing a shape but the rule
was to leave just one dot. Reminded me
of our kolam (a form
of painting that is drawn using rice)
Maths is making
connection. Keep connected
