" This best - selling book is now in its fifth edition - proof of its value to teachers; it has been updated in line with the most recent National Curriculum changes. With rigorous and comprehensive coverage of all the mathematical knowledge primary teachers need the book is perfect for both student and practising teachers. The way the text goes beyond rules and routines showing teachers why and how to teach mathematical concepts will deepen confidence. Chapter 1 has been expanded to discuss mathematical understanding in the light of the challenges posed by the current changes including the re - introduction of traditional calculation methods for multiplication and division the early coverage of abstract fractions calculations and much more. This is really valuable for all teachers ensuring they are fully up - to - date. Features of the book include: Check questions to test the reader's understanding; Challenges to increase teachers confidence and stretch their mathematical abilities; Links with the classroom to emphasise the relevance of ideas to the classroom context; Straightforward coverage from theory to practice for all aspects of the Mathematics Framework. Very usefully the book is accompanied by a website which contains further visual activities and support designed to scaffold and support the reader's own understanding. The material is clearly presented and there is a huge amount within the pages of the book making it an excellent resource." Sarah Brew Parents in Touch Review
