In our technology-rich world, numeracy is just as important as the smartphone in your pocket. Students need to develop mathematical ways of seeing the world and strong problem-solving skills, and those foundations are taught in the primary school classroom. This third edition has been updated throughout and includes a new chapter on numeracy.
Key Features
- Evidence-based uses: Digital technologies to support learning and teaching included in every chapter.
- Practical strategies: Can be implemented in the classroom.
- Comprehensive resource: Invaluable for pre-service and early career primary and middle years mathematics teachers.
Additional Information
The authors draw on the latest international research to show how teachers can develop a rich repertoire of classroom teaching techniques, and effective planning, assessment and reporting methods. They outline approaches to creating supportive learning environments for all students, and to building their knowledge and confidence in using mathematics.
