Unusual Mathematics After Classes. For Children Aged 8

"Unusual Mathematics" is a series of bright colorful workbooks for children aged 4 to 7. The first three workbooks in this series are suitable for classes with preschoolers. Now in front of you is a new workbook "Unusual Mathematics After... Classes" - it is suitable for students in grades 1-2. It contains a variety of tasks, both arithmetic and logical, that are usually not found in textbooks.Very often, elementary school teachers inform parents that children need to memorize the composition of numbers or solve several columns with similar examples quickly. At the same time, they repeat the thesis that it is important to practice and automate counting skills. This workbook will help your children automate their counting skills without rote memorization and tedious columns. There are quite a few arithmetic tasks for counting within a hundred here, but the tasks look entirely different. We have maps with travels across islands, colors, or planets: you need to solve a problem, write down the answer, and draw arrows of the correct length to know where the route will end up. Arithmetic pyramids and arithmetic triangles are another type of task that develops counting skills and logic.At the same time, we believe it is important to show children and adults that mathematics is not just arithmetic, examples, and word problems. In our workbook, there are many different beautiful geometric tasks, including those about three-dimensional figures - prisms, pyramids, octahedrons. You can make models of three-dimensional figures yourself from soaked chickpeas and toothpicks. We offer beautiful and complex tasks on symmetry - with butterflies on graph paper, as well as many different graphic dictations and graphic examples. These tasks help children develop spatial thinking and learn to navigate on a sheet of paper.It is important for children to learn not only to count but also to think logically, find patterns, and understand sequences. We offer children a variety of tasks to help them understand diagrams. For example, in one type of problem, they need to figure out what kind of house will result from assembling the parts in that sequence.Children aged 6-8 often confuse right and left. We offer a fairly complex task with trees, where they need to find and color the right leaf according to the PPL scheme (first, choose the right branch at the first two forks, then the left).Cute monsters and tasks about time, ciphers, and coordinates - all these are also mathematics tasks!Let the children choose for themselves the order in which to solve these tasks, and let them see that mathematics is beautiful!2nd edition, stereotypical.
