The cool and fun way to learn Math | 10on10 cool maths worksheets for Kids

Cool and fun way to learn math….

Math is always considered as a very complex subject and is the least favorite among kids. I’ve seen many kids struggling with math and their parents struggling harder than them to make them fall in love with math. As a kid, I used to love math and still it’s my favorite subject. However, I don’t know the reason of my liking towards math but I have always been good with numbers.

Last month, I went to my friend’s place and met her beautiful daughter, Riya. She is 6 years old and just in First Grade(First Standard) and loves math. Loves math?????? Well, at first I was really shocked to know this but then when I saw her doing her math assignment, I was amazed at the way she was doing calculations. You do not see a 6 year old math lover every day. Do you?

At last, I asked my friend that how come her daughter is so good at math, whereas kids of her age find a lot of difficulties with math. She told me that she uses a fun approach to teach math. She uses stories, object, characters etc. to teach her kid. For example, she will tell the story of ‘snow white and the seven dwarfs’ and will ask her kid to count from 1 to 7, and with this only she’ll teach her subtraction. Sometimes, she crafts a story around mathematical concepts to make her kid understand all the mathematical functions. I really liked the idea of linking fun with otherwise boring math.

Kids love cartoons and can remember a long list of their favorite cartoon characters than remembering 1 to 50. Have you ever seen a kid watching National Geographic or discovery channel with interest? Well, I haven’t seen any. But, I’ve seen many kids watching Disney channel, cartoon network and pogo with their food getting cold and eyes glued to the idiot box. This is the story of almost every home with kids. Animations like Dora, the explorer interact with kids and ask them to point out things to help Dora. These types of animations surely help kids in understanding objects and help in learning.

As we all know, kids love cartoons but hate math. So, why not add some colors to otherwise colorless math and make it interesting and fun for kids. Try out teaching your kid with the help of cartoons and stories and may be he’ll become the next Aryabhatta or Archimedes. 10on10 also strives to achieve this using kids math worksheets for kids between Lower and Upper Kindergarten to Grades 1,2,3 and 4.

Cartoons + Math = Fun

Integration of Mathematics and India | 10on10.in and Maths Olympiad

“The intellectual potentialities of the Indian nation are unlimited and not many years would perhaps be needed before India can take a worthy place in world mathematics.” – A. Weil

India has been the birthplace to many great mathematicians like Aryabhata, Bhaskara,
Brahamagupta and many more. The Decimal number system was discovered by one Indian mathematician only; Bhaskara I. India has contributed a lot in the development of mathematics.

Mathematics is an important part of Indian culture. Different branches of studies, like commerce, science and engineering, revolve around maths. Parents in India start dreaming about the future of their children right from their birth. They want them either to be engineer, doctor or architect. The burden of these high expectations comes directly onto the kids, who start burning the midnight oil to fulfill them. At very young age, they start preparing for entrance exams of engineering like AIEE, JEE etc. to get into the premium institutes like IIT. Maths is an integral part of these entrance exams and one need to be excellent at maths to clear them.

A large number of Maths Olympiads are held in India to encourage the kids to show their mathematical skills. These Olympiads are held at regional, national and international level. Priyanshi Somani, was the youngest participant of the Mental Calculation World Cup 2010 and won the overall title. She is the only participant who has done 100% accuracy in addition, multiplication, square root till date in all four Mental Calculation World Cups and has her name recorded in limca book of world records.

At 10on10.in (India's top kids’ math educational portal for after school math practice using worksheets and games), the focus is on developing an out of the box style thinking in math so that Indian kids continue to excel in the math Olympiad as they have done in the past. Apart from Olympiad math, 10on10 focuses on improving and sharpening the basic math concepts especially for kids from the Lower kindergarten(LKG/Nursery) right through Upper Kindergarten and Grades (Standards) 1,2, 3 and 4. For more information visit 10on10.in for samples of free kids’ math worksheets that are both downloadable and printable.

In India, math has secured an important place in the education system and will continue to be an integral part of the curriculum. 10on10 helps the kids in understanding math and thereby setting a strong foundation at an early stage. Math is like the mango among subjects, everyone wants to take a bite of it, for some this bite can be sour and for some it is eternally sweet.10on10 helps in turning undesirable sourness to eternal sweetness.
