Guiding Children's learning of Mathematics

This book helps one to articulate the importance of Mathematical education for all children. It also demonstrates the ability on how to apply the principals of child development theory and sound pedagogical practice in the development and implementation of appropriate math experiences for children, including the unnderstanding of developmental readiness. It helps one plan and implement appropriate mathematics instruction and assessment by: -incliding instruction that developes students' problem-solving activities; -utilizing manipulatives to make math conceptsmore concrete and understandable.
