　　数学是一切科学之母

　　却也是很多孩子心中的“大魔鬼”

　　数学不能枯燥的学

　　不妨让孩子试试STEAM新方法~

　　本周六(7月4日)

　　广州市斐特思学校小学部

　　"数学奇才"学科体验课 X 家长工作坊

　　7位教育专家领衔STEAM数学课堂

　　还有学校校长和招生官一对一招生咨询

　　On Saturday 4th July, the Fettes College Guangzhou Primary School Team are excited to welcome children and their parents to take part in an active learning workshop focused on ‘Developing Maths Wizards’ – this promises to be a ‘simply magic’ experience!

　　当前大众对STEAM课程的重视，突显了数学在小学阶段的重要性。

　　研究表明：早期数学技能比早期阅读技能更准确地反映学生后期的学术成就(Stipek, Schoenfield, Gamby 2012)。

　　因此，小学教师需要为教授数学做好充足的准备。作为家长，我们则需要了解数学较有效、较吸引人和较新的教学方法。

　　The current emphasis on STEAM learning in education serves to underline the importance of mathematics in the Primary years. Research suggests that early maths skills are a more accurate indicator of later academic success than early reading skills (Stipek, Schoenfield, Gamby 2012). It is crucial therefore, that Primary teachers are exceptionally well-prepared to teach mathematics and that, as parents, we are well-informed about the most effective, engaging and up-to-date teaching methods when it comes to mathematics.

　　学生通过游戏展示他们对数学的直觉知识，但数学能力不会自动出现(Copley 2010)。

　　为了赋能数学思维，为学生提供适当的"脚手架"工具是很有必要的。"脚手架"必须足够稳固以建立知识，但也需要足够灵活以学习者能够独立操作。

　　只有当"脚手架"有意义并与实际情境产生联系时，数学思维才能得到充分发展。

　　Children may naturally demonstrate their intuitive knowledge about maths in the process of play, but mathematical proficiency does not just emerge on its own (Copley 2010). In order to empower these young mathematical minds, it is necessary to provide appropriate ‘scaffolding’. The ‘scaffolding’ must be sturdy enough to build knowledge but flexible enough to be removed so the learner is able to function independently. This can only happen when the scaffolding is meaningful and in context.

　　想知道如何更好的培养学生的数学能力吗?
