Abstract

Mathematics one of the important subject in primary schools, it is the best criteria for evaluating the ability of students level for learning and understanding. The problem is the students felt weakness and anxious in mathematics subject especially those students in the grade one to three, moreover, sometimes they fail in mathematics become to a factor to fail other scientific subjects, for these reasons the teachers should be teaching mathematics carefully and use modern methodologies for teaching mathematics. This study aims to find the factor of difficulties of teaching mathematics in the primary classes as well as the complexities in the mathematics curriculum in these classes. For addressing this issue, we use a sampling method for collecting data and analyzing method for analyzing data collected. For collecting real data, ten relative questions proposed then answered by one hundred teachers through their experience and their knowledge. The result of the study shows that the mathematics subject needs to improve through teachers’ experience and to improve the mathematics curriculum. Moreover, this results leads for the teachers to solve general issues of mathematics in the primary school, especially among grade one to grade three.

Highlights

  • Mathematics is considered one of the most important subjects because it is a science which contains others fields, the base of growth and development in the human mind with the enhancements throughout years mathematics never loses its importance even the advance of technology and revolution of science are most likely related to mathematics and the equations of math

  • Related Works There are many works that exist about mathematics difficulties; here, we present the most relevant and recent works

  • This study presents the factors of difficulties of learning mathematics, which used a sampling method for collecting data, as well as the used analysis method for extracting and analyzing the collected data

Summary

Introduction

Mathematics is considered one of the most important subjects because it is a science which contains others fields, the base of growth and development in the human mind with the enhancements throughout years mathematics never loses its importance even the advance of technology and revolution of science are most likely related to mathematics and the equations of math. It is known that the abilities to acquire the science among students are limitless and the obstacles for them are not the same but in general, the children who enter the school for the first times they face difficulties learning the subject, especially primary schools especially in the grade one to three (Geary, 2004). The teaching aids in mathematics presented for decreasing difficulties of learning mathematics (Alshatri, Wakil, Jamal, & Bakhtyar, 2019)
