Malrechnen
Read full descriptionHide full description
Das Malrechenfeld ist ein virtuelles Arbeitsmittel zur Veranschaulichung von Multiplikation und Division im Zahlenraum bis 100. Es ist bewusst kein Übungsprogramm, sondern eine Experimentierumgebung, in der Kinder die Grundoperationen erkunden, darstellen und verstehen können. Mit der App lassen sich: • Multiplikations- und Divisionsaufgaben legen, • Darstellungen im Malfeld, an der Zahlenlinie und als Division direkt miteinander verknüpfen, • Zusammenhänge zwischen Aufgaben und Darstellungen entdecken und Rechenstrategien erkunden. Die App eignet sich besonders für: • Kinder mit Rechenschwierigkeiten (Rechenschwäche, Dyskalkulie), • die individuelle Förderung im Unterricht oder zu Hause, • das Aufbauen tragfähiger Vorstellungen als Grundlage für weiterführende Inhalte (z. B. Rechenstrategien, schriftliche Verfahren). Wichtig: Die App enthält keine vorgegebenen Übungsaufgaben. Lernanregende Aufgabenstellungen sollten von Lehrkräften oder Eltern gestellt werden.
