As I wonder if the types of toys children play with may contribute to these learning styles. For example, it may be more likely to find that more toddler boys play with blocks or legos, thereby influencing their spatial reasoning. Also, possibly, more toddler girls may partake in pretend and imaginative play such as tea parties, thereby influencing their verbal skills.<br /><br />As well, how effective is it for teachers to address this discrepancy in the classroom through teaching balanced instruction with learning manipulatives or read alouds ? Does the range in mathematical thinking in kindergarten boys and girls narrow in range over time? <br /><br />Very interesting!

Mathematical think...that's really nice post....<br />Mathematical thinking of kindergarten boys and girls. I was wondering in this article who has better mathematical thinking in boys Vs girls because my son and daughter too go to kindergarten. Thanks for this wonderful article.colon cleansehttp://www.goarticles.com/cgi-bin/showa.cgi?C=1822997noreply@blogger.com
