a*****g 发帖数: 19398 | 15 昨天晚上到其他国家的首都,拜访了一个朋友。
这个朋友对孩子的教育很感兴趣,所以就谈起来了中美教育问题。
当听了我的”English is not Math friendly“的理论后,惊呼你怎么不早说啊!
然后把她在中国出生和长大的2岁半的儿子叫了过来,表演了一下英文数数。
孩子从 one 到 ten都比较清晰,eleven twelve 也还好,thirteen之后就有个别混乱
到了 twenty之后又好了,最后数到了 twenty-ten,就跑了。
朋友说这个事情刚刚发生没两个星期,
本来孩子数数到 twenty-nine之后停在那里思考,结果孩子爸多嘴说了个 twenty-ten,
然后就像被内化了一样,twenty-nine之后就是twenty-ten,
家长尝试改了几次都没改过来,发愁死了。
听完我一番话才恍然大悟,原来不是自己孩子有问题,美国孩子都几乎这样。
真正有问题的,是那个和数学不太友好的语言。 |

a*****g 发帖数: 19398 | 17 关于英语对算术能力的负面影响(2)
上次写过一些。这次再写一点(其实还有好多呢)。
首先,要理解下面这段文字,需要 UN-LEARN number in English。 能做到么?
现在听这个故事——
小朋友是有数感的。
数感是对数字的最原始的理解能力,包括排序、相等不相等、大小之类的。
数感在3岁就已经有了,甚至是更小的年龄。
好啦,现在你开始教小朋友学数学啦。
先开始学英语数数吧——
one,two three four five......nine, ten, eleven, twelve,
继续数 thirteen, fourteen,.... ninteen, twenty
然后你又教小朋友下一个是 twenty-one, twenty-two,....
现在小朋友已经学到了 twenty-nine, 你不教他下一个数字。
你猜小朋友下一个会数什么?
这个故事我就先说到这里。
(对这个故事不能体会的,可以去问问纯英语家庭有没有发生过) |

a*****g 发帖数: 19398 | 18 关于英语对算术能力的负面影响(3)
2年前,我給一些数学老师做了seminar,我讲的题目是介绍中国的算盘。
(自吹一下——虽然很久没摸过算盘,但那些口诀指法都还历历在目。)
其中我延伸出了一个问题——Dyscalculia (特殊教育的专业词汇——运算障碍)
例子是:为什么美国小朋友会写 17 + 46 = 513 这样的算式?
做seminar的那个时候,我介绍说如果用算盘作数学的 manipulatives,
不管你是从高位向低位加,还是低位往高位加,都不可能凭空多出一位。
那就会避免这个 Dyscalculia 问题。
其实这个思考还不够深刻。
后来我认识到的是————英语,没错,就是英语,才是罪魁祸首。
在中文里面,数字就是一到十。
超过了十,就是两个数字了,自然而然就有了“位”的概念。
而英语里面,从 one 到 twelve 都是独立的*一*个词。
这里插一嘴:其实大部分人不知道——
eleven 的词源是 "(拿走10)剩1",twelve 的词源是“(拿走10)剩2”。
后面的 thirteen.....ninteen 仍然还是*一*个词

编故事,讲究推进自然,即使戏剧性较强也要讲究一个合理。可是编着编着,作者为了
