Option 2 : Teacher should contextualise the mathematics problems and make mathematics a part of student's life experiences.
Mathematics is a subject that is completely related to the real-life experiences of the students. Every student has to use mathematics an unlimited number of times in his real life.
- It gives us a way to understand patterns, quantify relationships, and predict the future. Math helps us understand the world — and we use the world to understand math.
- The world is interconnected. Everyday math shows these connections and possibilities.
- Since mathematics deals in abstractions and itself is a way of thinking, it creates a dependent relationship between the notions and the language used to describe them. mathematical language facilitates thinking by complementing ordinary language.
- So mathematical language walks hand in hand with the growth of mathematical understanding, permeating the general linguistic development of children.
Teaching mathematics as a part of real life
- To develop the powers of thinking and reasoning.
- To solve mathematical problems of daily life.
- To understand and acquainted with the environment and culture.
- To make mathematics a part of students' life experiences.
- To prepare the child for various technical and general future professions.
- To prepare the child for higher study.
- To develop in the child the power for invention.
Hence "Teacher should contextualize the mathematics problems and make mathematics a part of student's life experiences." is the most appropriate in the context of the given statement in the question.
