Engaging Primary Children in Mathematics Zusammenfassung

Engaging Primary Children in Mathematics Margaret Sangster (Formerly of Canterbury Christ Church University, UK)

Effective teaching is a combination of technical skills and knowledge but good teachers also need to understand how children learn and how they can most effectively be taught. Engaging Primary Children in Mathematics explores the various strategies for engaging children in mathematical learning in the light of theory and practice and is designed to talk straight to the teacher/student about their classroom approach to the teaching of primary mathematics. The importance of creating a learning environment in which children can learn to be young mathematicians, where they can explore, create and solve problems, cannot be underestimated. Margaret Sangster explores how students and practitioners can develop their practice by reviewing a range of approaches to the teaching of mathematics and the development of those young mathematicians, with examples of thought-provoking activities to inform their own practice.

Engaging Primary Children in Mathematics Bewertungen

The book takes an interesting approach drawing together many accepted approaches to teaching mathematics with some new insights. Though there is still some question about the direct role neuroscience can play in informing practice, it is important to engage with this growing influence on thinking about learning. It is also good to see calculators being rescued from the bad press around their use. The issues addressed in each chapter will provide good discussion points for our intending teachers. * Sandy Pepperell, Principal Lecturer in Mathematics, Roehampton University, UK *
