Errors Related to Topics in Geometry, Data Representation and Analysis Made by Fifth Grade Students in the Republic of Мacedonia
In the learning process it is natural for omissions to occur and if they are not identified and eliminated in a timely manner, they are multiplied further on in the course of education. Therefore, one of the tasks of the mathematics instruction is to detect the errors made by the students and to eliminate them on time. Errors that have made students from fifth grade in arithmetic and algebra are processed in (Glavche, Malčeski & Anevska, 2015). In this paper the results of the research are presented about some of the most prominent errors that fifth grade students in the Republic of Macedonia make. Additionally, the paper offers a systematic overview of the identified errors and the reasons for their occurrence. It also offers procedures for elimination of the identified errors.
