Creamos un monstruito amigable, colocando la cantidad de ojos según el resultado de la operación./ We create a friendly little monster, placing the number of eyes according to the result of the operation.
Hello friends, in this opportunity I am going to present the strategies I use to teach at home addition and subtraction to my little son, as unfortunately we are in pandemic, we must at home reinforce the knowledge of our little ones, so that when they return to school they do not find it difficult and on the contrary enjoy again the process of the beginning of classes. As we all know mathematics is so important for the learning of children, as well as the development of their adult life, many of our children have a great fear of it, they see it as something bad and even annoying, I was one of those children, that is why from an early age we must reinforce the positive and encourage them, In the case of my son is the opposite effect, he loves mathematics, since he was little he has been interested in everything related to counting, adding, and now that he is older, he himself asks me to learn new things, and as in all his learning process from home, we use the game, dynamic and didactic activities to make it more effective, fun and efficient.
But before we must take into account that to reach the construction of the number, that is to say to get to perform these basic operations, the child must first know how to classify, serialize, graphically represent quantities, to later use this knowledge to operate in problematic situations of addition and subtraction which can even be presented in everyday activities, This resource can also be used as learning, for example eating a cookie, it is indicated if you eat 1 and you had 2 how many are left, to start their imagination, so it becomes easier to solve the operations on paper, providing children with a less mechanical and more comprehensive learning. Throughout the post I will show you all the activities and games we do, which can be used at home or even at school, to make learning more fun for our little ones, I hope you enjoy and keep in mind that when we teach we also learn every day.
In this activity we invite them to perform more complex sums, the well-known sum carrying, with the constant of 1, since in many occasions it is difficult for children to do this stage, forgetting that one is missing, making it easier for them.
This activity is very similar to the previous one, but the learning priority is subtraction, the well known "Borrowing subtractions", in this opportunity we have the 1 as well as the sum as a constant, and on the opposite side the number less than the one indicated, so we give the child the opportunity not to make mistakes until he/she can do it alone without the help of these constants.
En este juego se invita al niño a realizar una suma y resta y deben colocarse sobre el resultado correcto, sin duda se maneja la agilidad mental del niño para obtener resultados rápidos, ademas de divertirse aprendiendo, sin duda alguna su juego favorito de todos, ya que utilizan todo su cuerpo para realizar dicha actividad.
In this game the child is invited to perform an addition and subtraction and must be placed on the correct result, no doubt the child's mental agility is handled to obtain quick results, besides having fun learning, undoubtedly his favorite game of all, as they use their whole body to perform this activity.
