Multiplication: why kids want to learn multiplication?
Children may want to learn multiplication for several reasons:
1. Efficiency: Multiplication allows children to quickly solve problems that would take much longer if they were solved using addition or subtraction repeatedly.
2. Real-world applications: Many real-world situations involve multiplication, such as measuring the area of a room, calculating the cost of an item when purchasing in bulk, or determining how many minutes are in an hour.
3. Logical thinking: Learning multiplication can help develop logical thinking and problem-solving skills.
According to “Effective Teaching Strategies for Elementary School Math” by James W. Stigler and James H. Hiebert, teaching multiplication through visual aids, manipulatives, and hands-on activities can make it more engaging and easier for children to understand. Additionally, connecting multiplication to real-world contexts can enhance motivation and relevance for students.
