Question 1
The mathematical field of geometry is made up of concepts relating to space
and shape – that is why, in the Foundation Phase curriculum, geometry is
often simply referred to as Space and Shape.
1.1. Explain the importance of shape and space in emergent mathematics.
1.2. Discuss the role of visual, verbal, movement/kinesthetic and tactile skills
in learning shape and space.
1.3. Differentiate between the concepts: position and direction. Provide an
example of your own for each concept.
1.4. Design an obstacle course you could set out for grade R learners. Write
down at least 5 instructions for the learners. (10) The instructions should use
position and direction words. Mention the materials you are going to use to
design the obstacle course.
1.5. Sketch a simple map for your obstacle course. Ensure that it could be
followed by children who are not yet reading in the formal sense. Think how
you could use color and shape as well as arrows to make your map clear
1.1 Importance of Shape and Space in Emergent Mathematics
In emergent mathematics, which is foundational learning at an early stage, shape
and space play crucial roles in developing spatial awareness, reasoning skills, and
understanding relationships between objects and their positions. Learning about
shapes helps children recognize patterns and develop skills that are fundamental
for later mathematical concepts such as geometry and measurement.
