Too often as early childhood teachers we give math short shrift (although we like to say that “Math is everywhere in my classroom!”). All of the highly readable articles here, collected from Young Children, reflect the research-based recommendations for practice in NAEYC’s joint position statement with the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). The authors offer proven strategies to introduce key mathematics concepts, foster problem solving and mathematical thinking, and encourage use of math across the curriculum. This attractive resource also includes a list of top resources in the area and carefully designed questions and activities to aid students and other readers in reflecting on the articles.
