DESCRIPTION:
"The key to good primary teaching of numeracy and mathematics is
confidence in mathematical knowledge and its relevance to the real world. In
particular, effective implementation of the National Numeracy Strategy requires
student teachers, primary teachers and mathematics coordinators to realize the
place of mathematics across the range of National Curriculum subjects.
This book explores mathematics as a set of tools
for thinking about, designing, evaluating and changing the world of the child
through the broader curriculum, rather than focusing on skills and concept
building exclusively in the 'mathematical world.' Practical activities are
included to stimulate readers to apply these ideas with confidence both within
and beyond the mathematics lesson."
