Sinossi

Help children develop their math skills

It is important for teachers to incorporate mathematics into the daily curriculum to ensure young children gain the foundational skills for later success in math. In this collection of articles from NAEYC’s journal Young Children, teachers of children from infancy through age 8 will learn how to help children develop, construct, use, and reflect on their mathematical understandings. 

Articles offer ways to provide in-depth, engaging learning experiences focusing on key math concept areas: 

  • Number and operations
  • Geometry
  • Measurement
  • Data analysis
The book provides a comprehensive resource list and a professional development guide with questions and activities to help readers reflect on current practices and incorporate new ones. 

This book is part of NAEYC’s best-selling Spotlight series—great resources for the college classroom and for professional development.

All early childhood teachers—those working with infants and toddlers through the primary grades—play an important role in laying a foundation for children’s future success in math. Promoting children’s math skills is easier than many think given that young children have an inherent understanding of mathematics (just think of the last time you gave a disproportionate number of treats to children— I’m sure the children let you know who had fewer and who had more!). Building off this natural mathematical inclination is a great starting point. However, research shows that for children to be successful in future math endeavors, this isn’t enough. It is important for teachers to actively incorporate mathematics into the daily curriculum.
