MATHEMATICAL AND DIDACTIC GAME AS A FACTOR CONTRIBUTING TO THE TEACHING OF MATHEMATICS

Abstract

The school should offer students a diverse learning process, which involves the use of a variety of methods, strategies, problem-solving methods or types of activities. It can be said that the goal of the teacher is to increase students' motivation and interest in learning through various activities. However, constructing a lesson to meet the motivational expectations of all students in the class is quite difficult. There are always students who find math a dry, boring, difficult subject. Therefore, our goal is to help students overcome difficulties and show them the attractive side of mathematics. One of the methods that will help us get students interested is math games. Conducting lessons using episodic game situations that are not traditional increases students' interest in the subject. We must make play one of the most important means of educating a student. Because fun arouses interest in students, a sense of anticipation, curiosity. Curiosity arouses interest in solving a mathematical problem. Therefore, we believe that it is necessary, especially at the elementary level, to conduct the lesson in an interesting, entertaining way, in the form of a mathematical game. They develop memory, thinking, learn to analyze, deal with difficulties. They are becoming more and more independent in solving various problematic situations.
