Abstract:
Teaching mathematics through real-world contexts helps students recognize that mathematics originates from real life and, in turn, serves real-life needs. When learning mathematics in connection with practical situations, students are able to apply mathematical knowledge to solve real-life problems. This paper proposes a process for teaching Grade 5 Mathematics through real-world contexts and presents illustrative examples following the proposed process.

Keywords:
Mathematics, primary school, real-world context, practical application, problemsolving.
