Mathematics

Mathematics When teaching mathematics, it is important to give the students an objective so they will see clearly what they are doing. It is also important to use different strategies to show or come up with the objective. This paper will show some examples of this. One objective is problem solving. Problem solving is a very important part of mathematical learning. It engages students to think and learn different ways of solving problems. Problem solving can be explained in a way that the student understands that it is used by people of all ages every day. Two strategies you could incorporate with problem solving are drawing a diagram, and looking for a pattern. Drawing a diagram provides an easier way for a student to actually see a problem. For example, when doing a geometry problem, drawing a problem out will make it a lot easier for the student to do it. Looking for patterns, another strategy allows the student to see a problem as a previous one such as when figuring out a sequence of numbers. Another objective as learned in chapter 2 is learning addition, subtraction, and multiplication of whole numbers.
