3-year-old Rishabh went with his mom to the ice cream shop. It was an exceptionally hot day. As soon as he had the ice cream in his hand. The scoop fell on the floor. He cried and cried for another scoop of ice cream and this time he wanted a bigger scoop for himself.
Rishabh is only 3 and he is practising math skills without even knowing it. We can sensitize the children about numbers from toddler level as well.
Mathematical thinking comes naturally to young children. Most often it turns into pressure if the subject is not treated interestingly. For eg: You can make songs or poems about numbers or daily activities that involve math skills.
This way child is subconsciously laying a foundation for his numerical reasoning. Contrary to popular belief math is not about the practice on paper.
Teaching Math can be broken down into two components
– Geometric and Spatial ideas;
– Numeric and Quantitative ideas;
Other Mathematic themes that we can incorporate through experiences are
– Patterns;
– Sorting and Sequencing;

My son is in 2nd cls. His writing speed is very slow.pls advise.
No worries. Give him interesting activities which involves writing ✍️. Also, give him small targets to write. Don’t make a stressful situation, keep patience and keep trying. Under no circumstance, your child hear from you that he is slow. That ways he might form an impression about himself as a slow writer.
Also, check his pencil, eraser, paper etc. sometimes improving the quality of these items helps the child in enjoying writing . Actual results will come when the child feels motivated to write.
Also, every child has a different pace of learning. Might be he is not slow, it’s just that he is taking time to develop interest in writing.
Involve the child in Drawing and colouring activities, or other activities which are done by hand.
I hope all these tips are helpful.
