Abstract

Mathematics is an ability that is used in everyday life in all aspects of age. The competence of mathematical abilities is important for every individual so that it must be introduced from an early age. This study aims to describe empirically early childhood mathematics learning in Realistic Mathematical Education (RME). This research is a qualitative research with a literature study approach. The findings show that: Mathematical ability is the main thing as a provision to live daily life so that mathematics must be introduced from an early age. Mathematics is closely related to the ability to think and is indispensable in all daily activities. In building mathematical knowledge in children, learning mathematics to be taught should be done in a fun way and using the simplest things that are close to the child’s life and are realistic. Realistic Mathematical Education is a practical solution in making mathematics learning more meaningful, engaging and fun. In the application of Realistic Mathematical Education, it is not only a provision in carrying out all activities in life but also can improve children’s skills in solving problems and thinking critically. Furthermore, the correct mastery of mathematical concepts from an early age will contribute optimally to learning mathematics at higher levels of education.
