Developing Primary Mathematics Teaching: Reflecting on Practice with the Knowledge Quartet [With CDROM]

By Tim Rowland, E. Anne Thwaites, Fay Turner, et al.

This book helps readers to become better, more confident teachers of mathematics by enabling them to focus critically on what they know and what they do in the classroom. Building on their close observation of primary mathematics classrooms, the authors provide those starting out in the teaching profession with a four-stage framework which acts as a tool of support for developing their teaching: making sense of foundation knowledge, transforming knowledge, connection, and contingency.
