| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
From the results of this study, the following three points have been clarified regarding the use of fingers during calculation. First, it was shown that over 70% of the children were using fingers during development process of calculation, and almost finished using elementary school second grade. Therefore, the action of using fingers during calculation could be positioned as a process of development of arithmetical abilities. Secondly, children who finished using fingers at the earlier timing recognized themselves as being good at calculating. Finally, it was suggested that finger recognition was related to the timing of the end of using fingers. It was thought that use of fingers decreased by internalizing the fingers used during the calculation.
