Quite often you can hear complaints from parents on the lack of children's inclinations to mathematics. From the first school days, they face difficulties in solving various examples and tasks. As a result, mathematics for many immediately falls into the category of unloved subjects. The desire to study it is completely absent, in the face of bad grades in children there is stress.
At least, every fourth child encounters difficulties in learning mathematics, even with excellent performance in other subjects. Children often ask their parents "Mom,
help me do my math, please!It's so hard". Naturally, there is the idea of removing this science from the list of school disciplines. Some parents support it unconditionally, others - insist on compulsory study of mathematics.
Causes of problems As practice shows, difficulties in studying the queen of science arise from the first classes. They are especially characteristic of those who are still not well read. It is for this reason that the children simply do not understand the meaning of the task until the end. In addition, abstract thinking in them is still developing, that is to represent the condition of the problem is difficult for them.
Not understanding the essence of the problem, the child will not even try to do it. Many parents in such situations "put a cross" on the undiscovered mathematical abilities of the baby. But on other subjects he has decent results. And some of them are also based on a logical structure - for example, English.
It turns out that bad achievements in arithmetic should not be attributed to the lack of desire to learn or appropriate abilities. The problem lies in the emotional and psychological factor. Mathematical problems are more easily solved by inquisitive, persistent, courageous children. And the difficulty with this haunts uncertain ones.
