Mathematik forschend entdecken - 1./2. Klasse

With these mini-experiments, your children in grades 1 and 2 will explore the exciting world of mathematics and develop their process-related skills at two differentiation levels!

Do you want to use experiments to introduce your elementary school children to the fascination of mathematics? Do you want to encourage the children to ask their own mathematical questions and solve problems? Then this booklet offers numerous ideas on how mini-experiments can be successfully integrated into mathematics lessons for grades 1 and 2!

At the beginning of the book, you will find a section on training process-related skills for experimentation. The main part of the booklet consists of experiments covering various content areas: numbers and operations, space and shape, measurement and sizes, as well as data, frequency, and probability. The experiments challenge the students in different ways: sometimes the children need to formulate their own hypotheses, and other times they must prove that a hypothesis is incorrect.

The book includes two versions for each experiment, one for beginners and one for advanced learners.
