Teaching Pre-Mathematics Concepts for ages 3 to 6
Pre-maths in early childhood education
Description
If you are a teacher of young students, an early childhood educator, teaching children between eh ages of 3 to 6, this short course is for you.
In this course, we will learn what pre-maths skills are, why it is an important domain for us as teachers to address in the early years, what kinds of concepts we should cover and how to teach the pre-maths domain. We will look at the importance of the domain, effective techniques to teach, how to use curriculum, and a few examples of teaching the domain in the classroom as well.
The course is divided into sections to help you:
· Discover at what age children actually start recognising and understanding mathematical concepts.
· Understand why pre-maths skills are important to learn at a young age
· Understand which pre-maths concepts can be taught to the age group 3 to 6
· Be familiar with effective teaching aids to teach pre-maths concepts in the classroom
· Be able to begin teaching pre-maths concepts using an activity-based approach that spans across developmental domains.
Apart from learning about the pre-maths domain, you will also learn about how effective an activity-based approach is to make learning effective. These techniques and examples will also help you in teaching other domains.
