Thoughts On Aesthetic Education In Primary Mathematics

Through complete analysis and research, this article describes author's viewpoint on aesthetic education in primary mathematics, which has been a hot issue of education reform. The description consists of four parts.The first part, on the basis of comprehensive analysis, I have described the concept and meaning of aesthetic education in primary mathematics, and give its primary bounds.The second part, I defined the instructive meanings of aesthetic education in primary mathematics. It is very important that aesthetic education help primary mathematics teaching to break up monotonous and boring mode. Specially point out: if the principle of aesthetic education has been put into practice, it will be helpful to the development of primary students' psychological and physiological character and be beneficial to training primary students to get the ability of innovation. Mathematics is an abstract subject, So it need development primary students' interest and the ability of thinking.The third part, I completely analyzed main reasons of difficulty in practicable aesthetic education in primary mathematics. Now primary mathematical teachers' comprehensive teaching ability and the point of view are out of accord with demand of mathematical teaching; Defects in the textbook of primary mathematics makeaesthetic education unfounded; The ability and level of primary students' thinking and practice decide their aesthetic ability; Abstract of mathematics makes beauty of mathematics so far from practice that people usually ignore "mathematical beauty"; Defects in a system of evaluation make aesthetic education in mathematics unpractical. So we can say, practicable aesthetic education in primary mathematics is a systematic work. It need leading of policies, change of educational view; innovation of primary textbook, improvement of primary teachers' ability; Certainly it will be restricted by mathematics' own character and primary school students' intellectual level. So, combination of aesthetic education and primary mathematical education is a long and hard work.The fourth part, on the basis of analysis of situation of education, we must correctly locate aesthetic education in primary mathematics. And give my own project of the contents, aim, principle of aesthetic education.The special characteristic of primary mathematics decided that combination of aesthetic and primary mathematics shouldn't be simply added up together, it should be combined with the actual conditions. The core of it is: Using the principle of aesthetic education in primary mathematics, Inspire primary students' spirit of initiative and innovation, make them interested in mathematics and do well in mathematics.
