EDU 330 - TASK ANALYSIS - PROBLEM SOLVING

The task was to explore the environment and create mathematical concepts that can be introduced to children in a classroom setting.
My group selected   the Bras Basah MRT environment . we created a web that contained  different learning concepts with objectives that can be introduced to  the six years old  .
The concepts are measurement, time , money, mapping, sequencing and others. All these concepts are related to their  daily life experiences and they  will be able to apply the  various  strategies with familiarity  to model and represent their problem solving skills in many ways.
children will be able to apply the varied strategies and engage themselves in process of doing the math concepts example they will be guided to understand the problem , devise a plan , look out for the pattern , guess and check , and then look back. This will allow children to think and talk through the problem raised in the concept.
As teachers',  we need to provide the opportunity to enable children to work in pairs, groups  and alone ,  listen actively to the different way the child present their explanation , provide appropriate hints and thereafter provide the worthwhile extensions to assess the child's problem solving strategies.
This problem based approach will also  help to accommodate the diversity of learning in the classroom.
