Riassunto

Issues in Teaching Numeracy in Primary Schools is a bestselling guide for all trainee and practising primary school teachers, classroom assistants and mathematics specialist teachers. It provides an accessible guide to a wide range of research evidence about teaching and learning mathematics.

Major changes in the primary mathematics curriculum in recent years - such as those recommended in the National Numeracy Strategy, the Primary National Strategy, the Early Years Foundation Stage, the Williams, Rose and Alexander Reviews - are reflected throughout the book.

The new edition comprises fourteen new chapters, including a section devoted to post-Williams issues and four popular chapters that have been retained and updated in light of the vast changes in the field.

Key topics include:

Using resources, ICT, AfL and problem solving approaches effectively

Learning from errors and misconceptions

Developing mental and written calculation

The 'gifted and talented'

Transition from EYFS into Key Stage 1

Intervention and the Every Child Counts programme

This popular book is essential reading for all trainee and practising primary school teachers, classroom assistants and mathematics specialist teachers.

The chapters can be read in a standalone fashion and many are cross-referenced to other parts of the book where specific ideas are dealt with in a different manner.
