Description

Developing Young Children's Mathematical Learning Outdoors provides practical guidance for planning mathematical experiences that motivate young children to take ownership of their learning. By examining the features of a mathematically rich outdoor environment, this book illustrates how adults can create contexts that foster children's mathematical play and thinking. The author draws on her experience to offer support for students and early years practitioners in developing quality experiences that combine pedagogy with effective practice. The book covers all aspects of mathematics, identifying meaningful contexts and suggesting open-ended questions and prompts to promote children's mathematical exploration outside. With case studies and reflective questions included throughout, this book is a valuable resource for those looking to develop curious and creative mathematical thinkers in the early years.
