--- title: Brainstorming on the mathematical tools required at each level published: true routable: true visible: false lessons: - slug: brainstorming-123-mathematical-tools order: 2 --- #### Brainstorming on the mathematical tools required at level 1 -------------------------------- with a **first classification to sort out** the brainstorming (counting, geometry, etc.). It *does not presage chapter titles*. Feel free to create a new classification if necessary. ! *Numeration and operations* ! (CME-FR) _Good mastery, with exercises to develop automatisms:_ - *Digits and numbers (base 10)* - *Whole numbers, positive and negative* - *Real numbers* - *The four operations: $`+, -, ×, ÷`$* and therefore the sign $`=`$ - *Power of 10 $`(10^p)`$*, power *of any integer n $`(n^p)`$* - *$`n^p \times n^q = n^{\,p + q}`$* RESPOND: (XXX-YY) ... -------------------- (CME-FR) _Good mastery, with exercises to develop automatisms:_ - The *fractions* (related to the Pythagorean theorem in the right-angled triangle, and the cross-multiplication's rule) RESPOND: (XXX-YY) ... --------------------- (CME-FR) _Good mastery, with exercises to develop automatisms:_ - *Comparison of numbers: $`\ lt, \ gt, \ le, \ ge`$* RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) --------------------- (CME-FR) _Simply discovered, or more if it is useful to explain the number system, and better understand base 10? It can be very fun with animated figures_ - The *numerical bases* (in connection with the sets) _Idea: this can be very useful in physics, to introduce ideas very early on counting and large numbers._ RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) --------------------- (XXX-YY) ... RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) ------------------ ! *Sets* ! (CME-FR) _Whatever our level, all our life we characterize, classify in categories_ _and sets. A first approach seems essential to me from this level 1 (with the idea of learning_ _not to be binary and to relativize). And it can be very visual and very fun, with_ _thousands of possible examples in everyday life._ _It seems useful to understand: _ _- base 10 numbering (and the others)._ _- what is an equation (and therefore later a correlation or a physical law of cause and effect)._ RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) --------------------- (CME-FR) - *Elements, characterize* elements - *Indistinguishable or distinct elements* - *Sets and subsets*. - *Union $`\cup`$ and intersection $`\cap`$* RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) --------------------- (XXX-YY) ... RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) ------------------ ! *Geometry* ! (CME-FR) _Good mastery, with exercises to develop automatisms:_ * *Pytahgore's theorem / the cross-multiplication's rule* (in relation to fractions and the right-angled triangle) RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) ------------------ ! *The equations* ! (CME-FR) - *equality $`=`$* - *write an equality, maybe true or false*. - *equation in mathematics*. - *equation in physics (members of the same nature, in the same units)* --------------------- (XXX-YY) ... RESPOND: ... (XXX-YY) ------------------
