Introduction to Numbers for Children!
In order to master the concept of mathematics, our primary goal at the Mikros Maestros Private Kindergarten in Oreokastro, Thessaloniki is to help children first understand pre-mathematical concepts such as grouping, classification, categorization, and spatial-temporal relationships (high/low, small/large, inside/outside, heavy/light, left/right/center, shapes, etc.). Familiarity with these concepts will help them develop their mathematical skills, enhance their mathematical thinking, and begin their introduction to numbers.
Then, through processes like comparisons, classifications, and sequencing, children learn the numbers from 1 to 20 and use arbitrary or conventional units to count, so that later they can perform simple mathematical operations (additions – subtractions). All of the above are taught by our qualified educators, and through educational books suitable for their age, which we work on throughout the year.
