Book SynopsisMathematics is not a universally popular subject, neither within nor outside of school. There are those who love it but many do not, and it is not uncommon for people to take a perverse pride in being bad at it.This book argues that, while much-needed improvements to mathematics teaching are necessary to address such issues, they are insufficient without also imbuing children with the character required to learn it effectively. Teachers of mathematics are responsible not only for applying skilful pedagogy but also for developing a productive learning culture within the mathematics classroom. We need to consider the emotional and social impact on children of teachers'' own attitudes and beliefs about mathematics and how children should be taught it.Sometimes provocative and irreverent but always stimulating and lucid, Presenting Children to Maths is an original and profound discussion about how students'' ability and success in mathematics depends largely on ho

The diagrams in the "Toolbox" (key information) are really clear. The worked example is similar to questions found on GCSE papers and clearly indicates the way to work through it - complete with the necessary words that examiners will be looking for e.g. "alternate segment theory"Lots and lots of practice questions and not too much reading for students - good way for them to learn - just reading pages of instructions simply doesn't work. Helpful indicators in the margins stating if the questions are "Exam Style" or to practise "Reasoning".I love this series - clear books without horrible "What did you learn in this unit" questions that students really hate! -- Bridget Jones * Abigail Lambert *

Book SynopsisMastery in Primary Mathematics contains clear, practical guidance for both teachers and leaders on how to implement a mastery approach in the classroom that transcends any particular context, school type or scheme currently being used. Filled with research-based evidence, case studies and concrete examples of teaching for mastery used successfully, this is the ideal toolkit to implementing a mastery approach across a school, regardless of expertise.Moulding pupils into confident and successful mathematicians is one of the most important jobs of a primary school. It can also be one of the most difficult. Teaching for mastery gives pupils the best possible understanding of mathematics and implementing it involves a two-pronged approach: mastery must be embedded in the classroom, but will only work with the full support of the school''s leadership team. Based on educational research and school case studies, Mastery in Primary Mathematics gives practical advice on introducing
