Riassunto

This book explores the effect that the National Numeracy Strategy and its successor, the Primary Strategy, have had on the way in which mathematics is taught in primary schools. Prominent contributors examine the Strategies' recommendations from the perspective of their own research areas or interests, and discuss the issues involved, including:

• Ideas for extending current practice
• Suggestions of important aspects of mathematics teaching that are being given little or no emphasis
• Alternative approaches that could be integrated into current practice
• Aspects of current practice that need to take account of recent research findings or emerging issues.

Each chapter discusses implications for teaching and learning primary mathematics. The book will be particularly useful for trainees, practising teachers, mathematics coordinators and numeracy consultants.
