Research on the Implementation of Space Concept Literacy in the Junior High School Mathematics Classroom Teaching in China

Current junior high school mathematics classrooms are increasingly focusing on the implementation of mathematics core literacy in China. Space concept literacy is one of the core literacy, so its implementation is attracting much attention. Based on clarifying the connotation and requirements of space concept literacy in the Mathematics Curriculum Standards for Compulsory Education (2022 Edition), and analyzing the highlights and deficiencies of junior high school mathematics classroom teaching, this paper puts forward four strategies for the implementation of space concept literacy in the classrooms: 1. designing life-related geometric inquiry activities with clear programs; 2. making reasonable use of objects and models; 3. adding measurement, graphing, manipulation into the teaching process; 4. flexibly using mathematics teaching software and emerging technologies to assist teaching. It is hoped that these strategies can provide ideas for the better development of junior high school mathematics teaching.
