Dạy học môn Toán thông qua học tập trải nghiệm với âm nhạc bài “Cộng bằng cách đếm thêm” (Toán 1).

Tóm tắt

Music has been proven to be an effective tool in promoting students’ interest and thinking development. Although many international studies confirm the benefits of music in improving learning efficiency and forming mathematical skills, the integration of music into teaching Mathematics in primary schools in Vietnam is still a research gap. This study proposes a process of teaching Mathematics integrating music based on the experiential learning model of David A Kolb. The process is illustrated through teaching the lesson “Adding by counting” (Math 1) to help students switch from the strategy of “Counting all” to “counting more” - an important step, helping them calculate faster than counting from the beginning, developing numerical thinking, mental calculation ability and creating a foundation for more complex calculation techniques. The song “Rolling the ball into the yard” was composed as a vivid pedagogical tool, connecting mathematics with life. In the future, empirical research is needed through quantitative and qualitative evaluations to validate the effectiveness of the proposed procedure.
