Number System - The Whole Picture

Presenting a whole picture before explaining the concepts helps children have a complete idea about what they learn.
Like any other classification (animal kingdom, plants etc.) numbers too have a system.


  • Zero with Natural numbers form WHOLE NUMBERS
  • Whole numbers with negative numbers form INTEGERS 
  • Integers with fractions form RATIONAL NUMBERS 
  • Rational numbers with irrational numbers form REAL NUMBERS 
  • Real numbers with imaginary numbers completes the NUMBER SYSTEM


When you understand this it becomes easy to build on concepts one after another. Else the concepts sland as isolated ideas, difficult for the child to comprehend and remember.
