The National Curriculum Framework (NCF), 2005 suggests the need for developing the ability for
mathematisation in the child. It points out that the aim of learning mathematics is not merely being
able to do quantitative calculations but also to develop abilities in the child that would enable her/him
to redefine her/his relationship with the World. The NCF-2005 also lays emphasis on development in
the children logical abilities as well as abilities to comprehend space, spatial transformations and
develop the ability to visualise both these.
