Produktbeschreibung

Fully updated to reflect the new curriculum, the revised edition of Transforming Primary Mathematics sets out key theories and cutting-edge research in the field to enable teachers to take a fresh look at how they teach mathematics.

The book encourages teachers to reflect on their own beliefs and values about mathematics, and asks them to question whether their current methods meet the needs of all learners, and the challenge of having high expectations for all. It provides clear, practical approaches to help implement fundamental change in classroom environments, and offers motivational teaching styles to ensure meaningful mathematics learning.

Transforming Primary Mathematics is for all primary school teachers who want to make mathematics welcoming, engaging, inclusive and successful.

Rezensionen

"Askew's book provides a fresh take on a difficult topic; namely, teaching elementary school mathematics. This well-researched book uses multiple theoretical lenses and copious references to relevant research to guide the reader to an approach that makes elementary school mathematics "something [children] want to pursue beyond what they are required to do ... Askew employs numerous examples from his own experience to elucidate the underpinnings of his arguments. Recommended for upper-division elementary education students, as well as any faculty member with an interest in mathematics education."
