When the Child is Lazy Counting
A separate problem for a tutor when encountered students who have a lazy habit of counting. Problem - questions relating to count count seemed to be a burden on the head of the student. Though these habits would be fatal. Of course, the higher the education level is reached, the perceived impact of the lazy to be heavier. Therefore a teacher must be clever - clever provide a solution as soon as possible so it does not result in more serious.
Before we give solutions and enlightenment, first a tutor must know the causes - reasons why a lazy student to calculate, when the count is something fun, even in daily life - the day a student can not be separated from the problem. For example the introduction of more or less. How might students know which is more appropriately of objects - objects that are presented in front of him without the student knowing how many such objects. The reasons - because lazy students calculate is the first, not hafalnya students to multiplication. This is the main reason that makes students lazy count. Supposedly multiplication in his head must be controlled since 3rd grade students, although it has not entered the learning materials. But the field is still new found 6th grade, new students memorize multiplication. It was still with the help of fingers. Even worse, at the junior high school or high school, students still have not memorized the multiplication. Secondly, it is not able to operate the negative integers. Note that a negative integer operation will always be used up to high school level. Third, familiarize calculate using either HP tools or calculators. For this third fact is the implication of a lazy count. But many also found students who are able to calculate well, they just use tools. And if this is allowed, the student will be lazy and getting lazy. Not that using the tools should not be, it is OK, it's just a tutor should be observant when students are allowed to use tools when not to. Is not every test any tools count is not allowed. Fourth, instant culture. How many students are lazy to calculate when viewed numbers - numbers that are too large or step - a step that is too long, but every step is practiced to analyze.
If a tutor already understand cause - the cause, then things - things that must be done by a tutor is the first, to teach arithmetic operation as early as possible. Even faster, sooner, the better. Second, teachers must often test orally simple arithmetic operations. This bias reached when they encountered students who are constrained in the count. Even oral exam should be conducted, either as an appetizer or dessert lesson. Third, motivate students. Tutors should be able to explain the negative impact of the counting lazy, so students will have fear when lazy count.
