Developing mathematical problem-solving capacity for 3rd-grade students through teaching Geometry and measurement

Abstract

According to the 2018 Mathematics Curriculum for general education, the ability to solve mathematical problems is one of the five core competencies that need to be formed and developed for high school students. Based on these studies, the article discusses the manifestations of the ability to solve mathematical problems in elementary school students, and from there proposes several measures to develop the ability to solve mathematical problems for third-grade students through teaching the content of Geometry and Measurement.
