I learn to play math

One of the disciplines considered most difficult since the first school years is one of mathematics. The content of this subject is seen in this way because for a long time the teachers ministered classes in a traditional way, a fact that did not attract the attention of the students. However, there are different methods of teaching mathematics to children in a fun way, so there is more interest in the discipline and there are also different ways of learning.
There are students who wonder about the application of mathematics in daily life and also in the future when they become adults. This is due to a focus on teaching that does not deal with more practical and reality-oriented content.

1. Learning with board games
For the children it was a few decades ago, we had a great time with board games, which motivated the logical reasoning of the light and efficiently. In spite of that, many people ignore the importance of these games for the teaching of mathematics to children.

Beginning with the traditional ones, games such as Checkers, Old Game and Chess stand out, which contribute significantly to the development of qualifications as strategy and logic. Act effectively in analytical thinking, the notion of time, concentration and patience.
We must also emphasize the importance of board games that allow us to break mazes, discover hidden treasures, which teach children concepts such as size, geometry, sequence, the notion of space and counting.

In the case of mathematics, mathematics, mathematics, mathematics, mathematics, mathematics, mathematics and mathematics.
Much of what children learn in these games can be seen in the contents addressed in classrooms and in school tests. The difference is that, as in games, concepts are constructed in a light and fun way, learning is automatic and becomes more interesting.
2. Proposing challenges to the everyday.
People know that mathematics is present in their lives, however, they still ignore the fact that their applications involve decisions that move society.

What is experienced in the day to day brings a lot of experience and, also, great learning? For the teaching of mathematics to children, daily challenges can become great opportunities to acquire the small sample of the subject, so it is important to take into account more and more the mathematics learning planning increasingly applied to the life, to everyday situations.
An example is purchasing in a supermarket.
Showing children the difference in values between the various products, making them add up or difference accounts, weighing the items, are good ways to practice mathematics in real life.

Another activity that serves as a stimulus to the practical learning of mathematics is the preparation of recipes in the kitchen. With this action, children can gain knowledge about proportion in the preparation of ingredients and fraction when they need to cut food into pieces to serve.
