Snippet: "It is useful," Leonardo wrote, to "constantly observe, note, and consider." But when you are Leonardo, what sorts of things are buzzing around in your head? Well, Toby Lester describes what is essentially a "To Do" list buried in one of those notebooks, a bunch of things Leonardo planned to do one week, or month, in the early 1490's.

There are many ways to support logical thinking, through practicing patters and encouraging students to create their own patterns. Help students understand concepts from inside out. It is important that the early experience is fun, using materials that are not overly repetitive and are presented in various styles of learning. Avoid creating the impression that math is only numbers, or that it must be delivered in strict manner. When math becomes predictable, ordinary and repetitive, children are no longer interested in learning and label it as boring. |
