In today’s post, we will talk about multiplication tables tricks. Usually, it can be a dense and complex issue because we have to memorize all the tables, sometimes using songs or rhymes helps to remember them more easily. Here we are offering you a few multiplication tables tricks that make learning multiplication tables a more […]

Within logical-mathematical knowledge is the process of classification, which represents the first steps towards learning more complex mathematical concepts. Classification generates a series of mental relations through which children group objects according to similarities and differences, depending on different criteria: shape, color, size, etc… These relationships are the basis for the construction of logical-mathematical thinking. […]

In today’s post, we’ll be relating clocks to angles as we are learning how to calculate the angle that the two hands on a clock form. An analog clock has 12 numbers, which divide the clock into 12 equal parts. These divisions indicate the hours. Each hour is divided into five subdivisions that amount to […]

In this post, we will learn about straight and curved lines, which Euclid described and studied. Many, many years ago (more than 2,000 years), Ancient Greece was a culture to which we owe an important part of mathematics. Euclid’s contribution was likely the most significant. He compiled everything known about mathematics up to that point into a series […]

In today’s post, we’re going to talk about geometric figures that, without us noticing, play a much bigger role in our lives than we think. We’ve looked at different geometric shapes in previous posts, you can see them here. How many geometric shapes can you find? Let’s look at some of them: A triangle is […]

In this post, we’re going to see what the commutative property is all about. Example Charles and George learned how to calculate the area of a rectangle in math class by using the base by height formula. Each of them was given a problem using the same rectangle, asking them to calculate the area. Charles […]
