Abstract(s)
The development of children's school achievements in mathematics is one of the most
important aims of education in Poland. The results of research concerning monitoring of
school achievements in maths is not optimistic. We can observe low levels of children’s
understanding of the merits of maths, self-developed strategies in solving problems and
practical usage of maths skills. This article frames the discussion of this problem in its
psychological and didactic context and analyses the causes as they relate to school practice in
teaching maths
