Mathematics For Primary Teachers by Valsa Koshy

This book combines accessible explanations of mathematical concepts with practical advice on effective ways of teaching the subject. Section A provides a framework of good practice. Section B aims to support and enhance teachers subject knowledge in mathematical topics beyond what is taught to primary children. Each chapter also highlights teaching issues and gives examples of tasks relevant to the classroom. Section C is a collection of papers from tutors from four universities centred around the theme of effective teaching and quality of learning during this crucial time for mathematics education.

'If maths gives you a migraine and the numeracy hour leaves you numb, seize hold of this thoroughly researched book.. the authors throw light on the primary/lower secondary maths you never quite understood ... essential guide for those of us still peering through a numerical haze.' - The Teacher
