The few mathematic lessons today really interesting and inspire me to be a good math teacher. It refreshed my personal understanding of why we teach mathematics. It is not about learning the content but how to direct children when they have a question and move on the investigation process.
The lessons were like simple tricks for us to practice repeatedly and to sharpen our understanding through those trial and error experience which were actually methods to solve the problem. Having all the skills to process our thoughts are important, and that is mathematics!
It was indeed a mind blowing lesson especially with all the three lessons that I have learnt. I agreed that teaching mathematics today is not just teaching methods alone but to help children with the learning process in experiencing their true understanding.
