Maths

Teaching maths in English for Lower Primary especially Year One is very challanging as most of the pupils could not understand these 'second language'. In order to make the pupils to understand,teacher needs alot of teaching aids and variety of teaching strategies. This could also make the lesson intesting and fun. Teacher should avoid teaching maths using 'talk and chalk' as maybe only the bright pupils can understand the lesson.

For lower primary,the teacher should provide different teaching aids to teach one topic. For example, instead of using the 10 base block to teach the four operations, the teacher can use beads, straws etc.

While for upper primary, the teacher can provide the pupils with a problem solving tasks so that the pupils can think mathematically and creatively and to get the answer they have to make things to be logic.
