Video: Help Your Young Child Improve their Math Skills Using Games & Toys as Math Manipulatives
Apr 29, 2020 | Tallahassee
With students around North Florida and South Georgia participating in an assortment of distance learning arrangements with their respective schools, parents are increasingly looking for answers to help their children with the learning process, especially when it comes to math.
For families with younger children, those who are pre-kindergarten, kindergarten and first or second grade, there are many toys, games and items around the house that you can use to aid in your instruction.
At Mathnasium of Tallahassee, when our team is working with younger students on their number sense skills, math learning and math tutoring, we often use manipulatives. Manipulatives are physical objects that help bring math lessons to life, turning the abstract into something concrete.
For young students in the primary grades, their introduction to numerical fluency is similar to learning a foreign language. In this case, it’s the language of math and how the numbers and symbols relate to each other. Physical math manipulatives are especially valuable for tactile learners.
For parents working with their children at home, there are toys and other items around the house that can be used to aid in this process.
In this edition of our Number Sense video series, we share tips on how to make learning math fun for families and help young students build their self-confidence.
