Worked practice questions

Which feature of mathematics is central to why many children fear it?

  1. Its focus on pure speed
  2. Its group work demands
  3. Its use of many tools
  4. Its cumulative nature
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Its cumulative nature

1. Learning in mathematics builds on earlier ideas, so one gap spreads to later topics. 2. This is why remedial work must trace back to the missing base idea. 3. Speed, tools and group work are not named as the central cause of fear. _Source: NCERT National Focus Group Position Paper on Teaching of Mathematics, 4.1 Fear and Failure_

A child struggles with percentages. Which earlier topic should a remedial teacher revisit first?

  1. Algebraic identities
  2. Mensuration of solids
  3. Coordinate geometry
  4. Decimals and fractions
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Decimals and fractions

1. The position paper links decimals to percentages and percentages to algebra. 2. So a gap in percentages often traces back to decimals, which is the base idea. 3. Algebra, mensuration and coordinates come later or are unrelated to percentage sense. _Source: NCERT National Focus Group Position Paper on Teaching of Mathematics, 4.1 Fear and Failure_

Besides being cumulative, what causes fear of maths?

  1. Overuse of storytelling
  2. Lack of written tests
  3. Too many holidays
  4. Symbolic language
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. Symbolic language

1. The paper says symbols are manipulated without understanding. 2. After a point boredom and bewilderment dominate and children dissociate. 3. The other options are not given as causes of fear. _Source: NCERT National Focus Group Position Paper on Teaching of Mathematics, 4.1 Fear and Failure_
