    Promotional Information

    Accessible, good balance of theory/practice, good range of images/illustrations to bring the content to life, accessible chapter titles. In particular I have used the number chapter as a source with students. -- Catherine Mary Foley, University of Reading I like the way progression is clear with excellent examples of practice. -- Jean Knapp, Kingston University I like this book because it enables the reader to access a whole range of ideas, both theoretical and practical and provides useful links to relevant literature [It would be well worth Early Years Practitioners buying for themselves so that they can refer to this when planning for and assessing their pupils] I particularly like the sections on problem solving, talk and recording - all of which are key areas both in the Early Years and beyond, particularly with the requirements of the new national curriculum for mathematics. -- Pauline Palmer, Manchester Metropolitan University This gives a different view of maths in that it approaches it from the subject knowledge aspect (rather than from the knowledge point of the children). This is an aspect which is often not seen by students as important for teaching young children - which, of course, it is. This book really makes that clear. -- Eleanor Cockerton, University of East Anglia
