STUDYING NUMBERS

Numbers are only studied if thought.The aim of teaching numbers is to make learners  become competent within the family of situations such as representing , determining  and identifying objects by numbers.
The learner will be expected to do the following: determine a number using any object he or she is exposed to, read and write information using numbers as well as interact with verbal information that contains numbers.
 In the articles after this, the learner will ,  study the following:
 >The meaning of a number.
 >Classification of numbers (ie Counting numbers, Natural numbers, Integers numbers,Rational and Irrational numbers.
 >Real numbers.
 >Directed numbers , Arithmetic Operations on directed numbers ( addition, subtraction,multiplication, and division of directed numbers).
 > Types of numbers ( even number, odd number, perfect square number, factors, multiples, prime composite numbers etc).
      To fortify the learner's knowledge he or she will study  Ratios, Proportions, percentages,Scales,Indices and Logarithms, Matrices, Set Theory. The learner will discover very exciting number patterns and properties.
     Studying numbers contribute to a good mental structure which permit the learner to react competently in different life situations as well as to be able to communicate concisely and precisely using numbers.
    Learners will be able to Recognize,Describe,and Represent numbers, and their relationships. They will be able  to count, estimate, calculate and check with competence and confidence in solving problems

 HOW DOES THE STUDY OF NUMBERS HELP THE LEARNER FOR MORE LEARNING?.
The mastery of numbers equip the learner with basic knowledge and skills( know-how) on which further learning in mathematics and pure science will be based.It will also equip learners with basic knowledge needed in other subjects such as the human sciences,commercial education etc.Indices, logarithms and their graphs are used in other subjects such as calculation of growth rate in seedlings or bacteria in Biology, Population growth in Geography, pH of a solution in Chemistry and rate of decay with radioactive substances in Physics etc.Matrices are used for treating networks and eventually for the solution of simultaneous equations.
 HOW DOES THE STUDY OF NUMBERS HELP THE LEARNER'S LIFE?.
The study of numbers provides the opportunities for the learners to represent very large or small numbers in the index form thus gaining space and time and also for easy understanding or appreciation of its value. Graphs of logarithmic and/ or exponential functions for economic applications such as simple and compound interest,annuities and more. Record inventory or data in matrix form will help for easy calculation of stock. These knowledge and skills will contribute in the management of family finances, application in different monetary transactions etc,justifies its importance in consumption and production of goods and services, social, economic and environmental issues, welfare and health,citizenship, media and communication.
  The learner with a good sense of number and operations with numbers has the mathematical confidence to make sense and meaning in various contexts.
