USING MICROSOFT WORD and MICROSOFT EXCEL in TEACHING MATHEMATICS

These two microsoft offices are very helpful in teaching and learning of Mathematics in primary classrooms. Teacher can design simple and interactive activities using these microsoft offices such as 'copy and paste' activity and counting. For example, the teacher can teach counting by asking the pupils to count objects such as teddy bears from a picture that has many teddy bears. It makes teaching and learning more fun. It also helps teacher to design their teaching aids by only using 'copy and paste' in Microsoft Word to make the picture for counting. It is so easy!

Instead of learning Maths, pupils will develop soft skills such as keyboarding.

Honestly, we feel that using these Microsoft Offices is a good idea and very helpful for teachers especially in preparing teaching and learning lesson to pupils.
