Study Notes
Number sense and problem-solving are two critical skills that are often used in mathematics. They help students understand what numbers mean, how they relate to one another, and how to use them to solve problems. In this article, the subtopics of mental math, numerical reasoning, critical thinking, and word problems will be examined.
- Number Sense: Number sense is an important construct that separates surface- level understanding from subject mastery. It helps children manipulate numbers to make calculations easier and gives them the tools to look at math in the outside world and make comparisons[3
