INTERACTIVE PROCESSING OF MEASURING AND MEASUREMENTS IN THE YOUNGER GRADES IN PRIMARY SCHOOLS
Keywords:
Methodical transformation and frames, processing model, measuring and measurements, interactive and integrated teaching.Abstract
Measuring and measurements is the name of an exceptionally
important topic, which has its place in the program curriculum of Mathematics, in
each of the four younger grades of primary school. Basis for methodical
transformation is the wide integration of the topic, especially with the teaching
subjects of World around us and Primary science teaching. Methodical frames for
processing the topic are made is such a way that they satisfy all the important
characteristics of interactive teaching/learning. Having that in mind, authors of the
paper first describe the concept and the characteristics of interactive math teaching. In
the main part of the paper there are functionally described methodical frames for
interactive processing of measuring and measurements in younger grades of primary
school. For illustration of the suggested methodical frames, a model of interactive
processing of measuring and measurements of surfaces has been created. In the
conclusion, there are stated the elements of evaluation of the described methodical
frames of processing the topic and the constructed interactive processing model of
measuring and measurements of surfaces.
