For countless years, there has been a growing emphasis on the significance of providing a solid foundation in mathematics for children under the age of seven. Mathematics for Young Children, originally published in 1991, showcases how children as young as four and five, regardless of their abilities, can embark on their own mathematical explorations while simultaneously covering the prescribed curriculum.
The book dedicates a significant portion to real-life case studies featuring children working alongside Marion Bird in a reception classroom. These case studies are vividly illustrated with examples of the children's remarkable work, providing a valuable insight into how a curriculum can be effectively covered through an investigative approach, which is of utmost importance to teachers navigating the implementation of the National Curriculum.
Extensive analysis is conducted on these case studies to demonstrate how an instructional approach can effectively facilitate the coverage of a prescribed syllabus. This is particularly crucial for educators who are dedicated to fostering young children's active mathematical thinking.
The role of the teacher is meticulously examined to identify those aspects of a teacher's repertoire that appear particularly effective in encouraging young children's active mathematical thinking. Throughout the book, readers are encouraged to apply and modify ideas to align with their unique circumstances.
