Number Sense Definition Number Sense Definition In mathematics there are several topics that helps the students to understand the use of different number in both simple and complex situations so there is one more topic that is related with the sensing of numbers and their magnitude and also defining the relationship in order to solve a specific operation or problem define as the number sense. Number sense provide the capacity to complete the traditional work algorithms.

For helping the peoples in understanding the numbers as well as their relationship and also for providing the power of solving the mathematical problems that is not follow any mathematical conventions and any specific rules there is need of concept of number sensing. When people relate their experiences with numbers, number sense came into existence. Know More About Anti Derivative Chain Rule

it is not the old mathematics based concept but it is a way where people can understand the numbers that are based on their defined way of understanding situation. According to the number sense definition ,It is define a way of gaining the mastery in the true number facts that means number sense is describe as the process of estimation, judgment, comparison, rounding, choosing the numbers that helps in calculating the real facts in easy and in effective manner by using the real experiences. Number sense gives a way of understanding the things quickly by thinking of the pre images or pre calculations as they helps a lot in fast calculations. For example a number six which shows on a dice as two groups of three dots means three puts three become six. This type of calculation in mind helps the children to maximize their memory power. Number sense includes several concepts defined as: 1: Estimating helps in real approximations of facts 2: Judging the degree of accuracy 3: Rounding the large numbers 4: Measurement degree of facts 5: Comparison measurement Read More About Adding And Subtracting Rational Numbers Worksheet

So these are some concepts that follow in good number sensing. This helps in increasing the memory power with the speed of calculation power. It can understand by a fact that a thing which is seeing is much more understandable than a thing which is counted or calculated. It helps the students in three ways as follows:·

It helps the students to pick a new strategy.

· Helps the teacher to find the type of thinking that is used and also the level of difficulty that is selected. ·

Helps the persons to learn according to their own thinking.

For example a three digit number like 543 is more understandable if we divide it in two parts as 500 and 43. To divide the problem into different segment that overcomes the complexity of mathematical problem into a simpler manner are known as the concept of number sense. Through the whole discussions which are held above, we can say that number sense is necessary part for the prime education of children. Many of the researches are held – on by the various institution and they find that number sense is an important elementary tool for the children and this should be included in the mathematics subject of kids. We can describe the concept of number sense as an analog as important to mathematics learning as phonemic awareness that can be used in the reading research field.
