Basic Facts Worksheets & Study Resources:
Brief Description:
Basic facts include mathematical concepts and procedures that serve as the bedrock of initial learning of mathematics. Mathematics is a highly objective subject that needs a strong foundation of basic principles. Based on some researchers, mathematics is best learned from basic to complex. Basic facts include lessons that act as a starting point or initial stage of learning. The lessons are number naming, counting, four fundamental operations, shapes, calendar, fractions, etc.
Importance of this Topic
Learning basic facts leads to a better understanding of complex ones. Once a child knows the basic principles of identifying numbers and shapes, most likely, they will experience less difficulty in learning fundamental operations and geometry. By solidifying the basic concepts of math lessons, children will be able to generate a better and deeper understanding of numbers, decimals, and fractions, to name a few. Remember, in learning math, a good start is a predictor of a better end.
Application of the Learned Topic in Real Life
Since most topics are learned during the early learning stages, they will build a good sense of meaningful learning. Imagine at a young age, children will be able to relate numbers with the number of chairs that they have in the kitchen. They will quickly understand that addition means putting objects/quantities together; subtraction means you are taking away something; multiplying is just a repetitive addition, and division is the process of repetitive subtraction. Children will understand the concept of a fraction — that we can describe a part of a whole. Early learners will differentiate circles from squares, so is a cone from a sphere.
