Description
This accessible introduction to the science of elementary math learning bridges the gap between research in cognitive development and math education. Structured according to children's mathematical development, it reviews and synthesizes the latest developmental research into practical classroom application.
Written for pre-service and in-service educators, this book offers a powerful resource for understanding children's mathematical development, from quantitative intuition to word problems. It helps readers identify math learning difficulties that may emerge in later grades and provides clear, accessible language and practical suggestions.
Ideal for early childhood, elementary, and special education teachers, or as a professional development resource for in-service teachers, supervisors, administrators, school psychologists, and other educators, this book is an essential text for anyone working with children's math learning.
