Mathematics for children : challenging children to think mathematically

As in previous editions of Mathematics for Children, this edition aims to support teachers at all levels of mathematics education - from early childhood to tertiary education - to develop their knowledge and understanding of mathematics by encouraging them to reflect on children's learning and their own teaching of mathematics.Part 1: Children learning mathematics. 1. Teaching mathematics for understanding: insights from research and practice -- 2. Challenging children to think mathematically: concepts and processes -- Part 2.: The growth of mathematical concepts and processes. 3. Exploring algebraic thinking -- 4. Developing statistical reasoning through data exploration -- 5. Exploring chance and probability -- 6. Finding connections in space and geometry: shape, location and transformation, and geometric reasoning -- 7. Using measurement to make links -- 8. Constructing early number concepts and relationships -- 9. Promoting number sense: beyond computation -- 10. Integrating fractions, decimals, ratio and proportional reasoning -- Part 3: Facilitating mathematics learning. 11. Linking assessment and pedagogy -- 12. Managing the learning environment.324 page(s)4th ed
