Branch of mathematics, concerning the study of numbers, related operations, and calculation algorithms.
Published in Chapter:
Laboratory Activities in Primary School Teaching-Learning Sequences (TLS)

Abstract
In this chapter some practical activities to do in primary school classes are shown, and these concern classic themes of arithmetic and geometry but also more recent topics in statistics and probability. Naturally, all of them are based on pedagogical-didactic aspects noted in the preceding chapters. In particular, MatCos 3.0 environment is used. A complete TLS, from which the new methodology based on the MatCos programming environment emerges, will be presented. Finally, the simulation software package, DAF, is presented to illustrate the concept and related operations of the fractions.
