Keywords:
preschool education, educational technologies, TIPS, mathematical development, logical thinking, spatial orientation, innovative teaching methods, game-based learning.Abstract
This article explores innovative didactic approaches to the formation of mathematical concepts among preschool children through the application of the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TIPS). It highlights the use of developmental and logical games, creative exercises, and modeling techniques in teaching mathematics to young learners. The study substantiates the need for systematic preparation of preschoolers for mastering school mathematics and emphasizes the role of educational technologies in developing logical thinking, cognitive activity, and creativity.Downloads
