Counters are tokens which represent units or numbers, so they can be anything. Teachers can cheaply acquire or make a bulk amount of counters to use. Some examples of what teachers often use for this manipulative are: dried beans, popcorn kernels, jelly beans, colored paper squares, marshmallows or…

knowledge, humans are the only creatures on earth that are able to contemplate infinity. We commonly talk about the infinite universe (which cosmologists now tell us is almost certainly finite but unbounded), we speak of infinite number series, such as the set of even numbers, and we use it metaphorically, as in saying someone has “infinite patience.” Time itself is spoken of as infinite, though it is always tied to finite objects which are changing and we can 't even come up with a coherent…

mildly annoyed that I didn’t know the school had an acapella group. Acapella groups have been close to my heart ever since I founded the glee club in my middle school and found my spirit animal in “Fat Amy” from Pitch Perfect. The group performed two numbers, both prominently featuring soloists. After spending about three minutes trying to situate the microphones, the group leader, Annie McLean stepped forward to introduce the group. The delay, however, was more comical than annoying, and the…

that do receive education at primary or secondary stages, Asians are considerably better at math than of the U.S. Educators, researchers, and many other personal beliefs have strongly made arguments over this given situation. Some stated that, the number system in Asian countries is intuitive which makes calculation very easy. Others expressed that students from Europe and US have way higher conceptualization math skills, than of the Asians. On the other hand, “ Why do Asians do better in Math?”…

learned last week. (The teacher writes 25X5 on the board. The teacher reads the problem. ) What do we multiply first? Students: 5X5 Teacher: What do we multiply next Students: 5X2 tens Teacher: That is correct first step to multiplying these two numbers. What is 5X5? Can we write 25 in the ones column? Students: No we can’t! Teacher: You all are correct! We can’t write 25 in the ones column. We must carry the tens. How many tens are in…

Firstly, math is a language of the universe because the number appears everywhere. The number is the prime of mathematics, and it is not difficult to see the number all around the people. Based on “Math Is the Language of the Universe” of Marcus Du Sautoy, the author states that by starting with the simple number, such as 0 to 9, the people can build more complicating number by putting the primes together. In this case, the number are like the oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen elements that…

I will need to come up with 50 different expressions that equal the numbers one to fifty on individual slips of paper put them into a container. The numbers 1-10 will correspond to B on the bingo board, 11-20 correspond to I, and so forth to 50 and O. The students will have to solve these expressions to get the number on the Bingo sheet. The object of the game, like in regular bingo, is to get five numbers in a row vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. To begin the activity,…

going around the room asking the children to explain how they added the numbers in their head. For instance if a child turned over a 3, a 9, and a 1. The easiest addition equation for the children at this age is to first do 9+1, to get 10, and then add 3 to that. Thus the equation would not be the order in which the cards were turned over, 3+9+1, but 9+1+3. The teacher was stressing this idea that the children could add up the number in any way they like, but the equation needed to represent…
