Abstract

Mathematical objects and procedures have their roots in the world around us. One of the basic human needs was related to the ability to measure, determine quantity. The core curriculum for mathematics for children includes the “practical skills” section. It should be treated as a section organically related to the development of mathematical competences, as shown in the history of mathematics, and not as an artificial addition to the building of understanding of concepts related to numbers and geometric figures. In this article, we discuss methodological issues related to weighing and time measurement.
