Methods of Teaching in UK for Primary Schools?We Answered:
Making sure you teach to all the different learning styles of the pupils in your care. They all learn differently, so you have to teach using a range of styles. The styles are visual, auditory and kinesthetic.https://olt.qut.edu.au/it/ITB116/gen/sta…

Interactive whiteboards are such a break through in attended the 3 learnign styles. You're not just lecturing the kids on things, and showing them, but you can set up 'interactive' (doing) tasks on them so that the kinesthetic learners needs are met.
There are now a wealth of websites for children to use to help learning - the BBC schools site is brilliant. You can buy amazing software too that makes learning fun. E.g.

why mathematics in primary school should be taught as interesting as possible?We Answered:
It is developmentally appropriate for primary schools to use a more hands on approach for every subject. Children before the age of about 11-12 are in the concrete stage of development. They need to be taught in a very concrete manner. With math being a more abstract subject, teachers try to make math more concrete by making it interesting. Actually all subjects should be interesting.Amanda Said:

Uni Essay : Why teach mathematics in Primary Schools?We Answered:
It's been proven that children (anywhere from 3-10 yrs. old) learn best when they're young. (See Piaget, Chomsky, Bloom, ect.) The brain has the capacity to create new neuro-pathways more readily than adults. Teaching any subject, particularly Math, in primary schools is more efficient because of the student's ability to learn and remember information in the early years of his/her cognitive growth. We should be introducing different languages to students at this level too, instead of later in the middle grades, where it's already a struggle for most students.
