They explore why these dogmas inhibit learners and perpetuate the belief that mathematics is only for certain individuals.
The book also includes practical chapters that focus on effective teaching strategies. These chapters provide insights into concepts such as choral counting in steps as a whole class and presenting mathematics questions as soap operas. Real-life case studies are also included, showcasing the use of Cuisenaire rods and climate change statistics to engage and inspire pupils.
This book is an invaluable resource for primary teachers who are passionate about reigniting a love of mathematics in their classrooms and improving learning outcomes for all students. It offers a wealth of practical ideas and strategies that can be easily incorporated into teaching practices, making mathematics an enjoyable and engaging experience for everyone.
