Abstract

This study aims to describe the early mathematic skills of preschoolers in the understanding division through the idea of “fairness”. The idea of fairness was familiar to children before the division was first encountered formally. The subjects in this study were three children aged 3-5 years. Based on the research results, it is found that children aged 3-5 years already have an initial understanding of the division. This understanding is identified through what is known as ‘fair sharing.’ Their perception of division can be seen from the subjects’ responses and expressions in “fairness” and “equal sharing” activities.
