We cannot stress the importance of highlighting a student’s positive behavior in front of the class and parents. After all, positive reinforcement is the backbone of instilling good habits and behaviors in children. But what about negative behaviors? Often, teachers have a positive classroom behavior list to refer to and access to behavior tracking apps … Read more
Learning to write is not an easy feat. Ask a preschooler struggling to use those tiny fingers to grasp a pencil and then process the instructions to form letters correctly. No wonder many young kids shy away when it comes to writing tasks. As parents and teachers, we know that writing is an essential skill … Read more
Math can sometimes seem like a puzzle. Terms like whole numbers, natural numbers, positive and negative numbers, and integers can all be confusing. To ease your confusion, let’s pick “integers” as the topic of discussion for today. You may be wondering, “What are integers anyway?” Well, integers are those unique numbers that don’t have any … Read more
“There are three kinds of truth: facts, evidence, and statistics.” – Benjamin Disraeli That’s the reason why statistics are employed in every arena of this world. Whether in business, education, or science, statistics have proved useful everywhere. This branch of applied math involves different types of tests to analyze and interpret quantitative data. Learning statistics … Read more
In the scope of geometry, angles are fundamental elements that dictate the relationships between lines and shapes. Among these, supplementary angles hold a significant place. They represent a unique connection, presenting a pairing that adds up to a perfectly straight line. In this write-up, we will explore what supplementary angles mean, delve into their properties … Read more
Geometry is a vast subject entailing various subtopics like squares, rectangles, etc. One of them which tends to confuse students is triangles. This is because, unlike squares and rectangles, which present themselves as just one type, triangles are segregated into different types. Based on the sides, we have equilateral triangles, scalene triangles, and isosceles triangles. … Read more
We live in a world where shapes meet substance, and geometry forms an inseparable part of things around us. The real-life examples prove so. Give a glance at your surroundings, and you will find that every entity is adorned with one or the other geometrical shape, such as squares, trapezoids, and other quadrilaterals. While several … Read more
2,4,6,8,10,12, … Look at these numbers. Did you notice the numbers follow a particular sequence? If you subtract any two consecutive numbers from the list, you will get a difference of 2. 4 – 2 = 2 6 – 4 = 2 8 – 6 = 2 10 – 8 = 2 12 – 10 … Read more
Look around yourself. How many objects with four sides and a closed shape can you find? All these objects you have identified are nothing but what we call “quadrilateral” in mathematical language. So, conceptually, a quadrilateral is any closed polygon with four sides. These two-dimensional figures can either be regular (congruent sides are equal) or … Read more
