Product description
This book provides a comprehensive guide to teaching early number in a way which is informed by assessment and uses approaches which accord with children's mathematical thinking.
It is not designed to "dip into" for an interesting activity (though there are plenty of these). Rather, it gives a systematic presentation of teaching approaches which are focussed on taking children from where they are to the next stage of their number skill development. The detailed descriptions of specific instructional settings, teaching procedures and learning activities are organised in terms of the authors' Learning Framework in Number and relate closely to the outcomes of the assessment procedures set out in the related book Early Numeracy: Assessment for Teaching and Intervention .
Includes CD-ROM with photographs and printable activities and resources.
