B 97394 Young Child and Mathematics, Third Edition
Tap into the Power of Child-Led Math Teaching and Learning! Everything a child does has mathematical value. These words are at the heart of the third edition of The Young Child and Mathematics. Grounded in current research, the book focuses on how teachers working with children ages 3 to 6 can find and build on the math inherent in children’s ideas in ways that are playful and intentional. This resource illustrates through detailed vignettes how math concepts can be explored in planned learning experiences as well as informal spaces; Highlights in-the-moment instructional decision-making and child-teacher interactions that meaningfully and dynamically support children in making math connections. The text provides an overview of what children know about counting and operations, spatial relations, measurement and data, and patterns and algebra; Offers examples of informal documentation and assessment approaches that are embedded within classroom practice. Deepen your understanding of how math is an integral part of your classroom all day, every day.
