Features: It should be said that most children in normal development have an intellectual age that matches their chronological age, but a small portion of children may have an intellectual age higher or lower than their chronological age. In terms of mathematical ability development, they show differences compared to children of the same chronological age but share common characteristics with children of the same intellectual age. This indicates that determining the content of mathematical learning based on children's chronological age cannot meet the developmental needs of all children. Therefore, we have developed this "New Concept Mathematics for Young Children" series based on the characteristics of number ability development among children of the same intellectual age. Teachers and parents can not only use this textbook to teach children mathematics but also preliminarily assess their intellectual age development level by observing how well they grasp the material. The book is divided into four volumes, each suitable for children aged 2-3, 3-4, 4-5, and 5-6 in intellectual age. Each volume consists of three books, covering all the content and requirements for preschool mathematics education. The volumes are progressive, helping teachers and parents to systematically teach children mathematical knowledge. This book not only fully considers the internal logic, scientificity, systematicity, and comprehensiveness of mathematical knowledge in its content arrangement but also carefully selects teaching methods that align with the cognitive characteristics of children at different intellectual stages. This allows children to master mathematical knowledge through activities like looking, talking, doing, and playing, thereby enhancing their interest in learning mathematics. This volume is suitable for children aged 4-5 in intellectual age and includes content such as perception of sets, recognition of numbers within 10 and addition operations, preliminary knowledge of geometry, knowledge of quantity (including recognition of currency), as well as time and space concepts.
