Habilidades Espaciales
Usamos nuestras Habilidades Espaciales para manipular mentalmente objetos y números. Estas habilidades son fundamentales para el aprendizaje matemático posterior, particularmente para el desarrollo del sentido numérico, ya que visualizar y manipular mentalmente números en el espacio puede ser una forma efectiva de resolver problemas matemáticos.
Ideas Principales
Hay tres habilidades espaciales principales:
- Percepción Espacial: percibir y entender visualmente la información espacial (por ejemplo, características, tamaño y posición).
- Rotación Mental: representar y rotar mentalmente objetos 2D y 3D en el espacio rápida y precisamente.
- Visualización Espacial: realizar manipulaciones multietapas de información presentada espacialmente.
