3. Kids learn mostly through the sense of sight, feel and action. Abstract conditions are not the way to go. In teaching them mathematics, you dont have to just write letter two on the chalk board. They want to feel it and act it. You can write it on papers with different colours so that they can feel and play with. The next thing is to practice. You can make them use their fingers to demonstrate that particular letter.
5. Let them do more of the work. The more they practice the better they understand. The maths should be activity base rather than raw verbal communication. You can use real objects to facilitate the learning of addition, multiplication, division and substraction. Beans seeds, maize seeds, groundnut and other variety of seeds can be used to guide your teaching. This helps make clear differences in your teaching eg 2+3=5. In this case it is better you get two different colours to represent the numbers. Foristance you can use two beans to represent the two and three groundnuts for the three.
