反向思维是一种从事物的对立面思考问题的方法。这种思考问题的方法能够提高学生变换角度考虑问题的能力,增强他们的创新意识,也能够加深学生对课本知识的理解,使学生更好地掌握课本知识,为未来的学习奠定坚实的基础。本文介绍了反向思维的基本概念,说明了反向思维在小学数学教学中应用的重要性,并列举了一些可以将反向思维应用于小学数学教学中的途径。 Reverse thinking is a way to think through the opposite of things. This method of thinking can improve students ’abilities to consider problems from perspectives, enhance their sense of innovation, deepen students’ understanding of textbook knowledge, enable students to better grasp textbook knowledge and lay a solid foundation for future learning. This paper introduces the basic concept of reverse thinking, explains the importance of reverse thinking in the application of primary school mathematics teaching, and lists some ways to apply reverse thinking in primary school mathematics teaching.
