"This richly varied text offers generous support for every aspect of the teachers role, while constantly reminding us that mathematical activity is not a de-contextualised skill that children possess, but part of their identity, their way of being in the world, engaged with the world, energetically and playfully trying to make sense of it. . Mary Jane Drummond, formerly of the Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge, UK . . . "Teaching and Learning Early Number" is a bestselling guide for all trainee and practising Early Years teachers and classroom assistants. It provides an accessible guide to a wide range of research evidence about the teaching and learning of early number. . . Major changes in the primary mathematics curriculum over the last decade such as the National Numeracy Strategy, the Primary National Strategy, the Early Years Foundation Stage and the Williams Review - have greatly influenced the structure of this new edition. The book includes: . . A new introductory chapter to set the scene. Six further new chapters including Mathematics through play, Childrens mathematical graphics and Interview-based assessment of early number knowledge. Six completely re-written chapters and two updated chapters. A new concluding chapter looking to the future. . The chapters can be read in a standalone fashion and many are cross referenced to other parts of the book where specific ideas are dealt with in a different manner. Issues addressed include: new research on the complex process of counting and on childrens written mathematical marks; counting in the home environment and play in the school setting; the importance of mathematical representations and of ICT in childrensunderstanding of number; errors and misconceptions and the assessment of childrens number knowledge."
"The beliefs and number understanding of nursery and reception children are examined, and a detailed account is provided of the role of counting in the acquisition of number understanding and in the development of derived fact strategies."
