Keywords:
logical problem-solving, mathematics education, critical thinking, elementary students, problem-solving strategies, visual aidsAbstract
Teaching elementary school students to solve logical problems in mathematics develops critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and analytical reasoning. This thesis explores structured problem-solving models, visual aids, puzzles, real-life applications, and technology-enhanced learning. By fostering logical reasoning through engaging methods, students build confidence and essential skills for academic and real-world challenges.
