Series: Towards an Ethical Praxis in Early Childhood

Structured around Bishop’s six fundamental mathematical activities, this book brings together examples of mathematics education from a range of countries to help readers broaden their view on maths and its interrelationship to other aspects of life.

Considering different educational traditions and diverse contexts, and illustrating theory through the use of real-life vignettes throughout, this book encourages readers to review, reflect on, and critique their own practice when conducting activities on explaining, counting, measuring, locating, designing, and playing.

Aimed at early childhood educators and practitioners looking to improve the mathematics learning experience for all their students, this practical and accessible guide provides the knowledge and tools to help every child.

Reviews for Mathematics in Early Childhood: Research, Reflexive Practice and Innovative Pedagogy

This relevant and timely book situates research and practice in the field of early childhood education. Its international context demonstrates the power of collaborative study and writing. The mathematical content is structured by using Bishop's six universal activities. Connecting these mathematical ideas with classroom activities offers the reader a novel perspective on both early childhood research and practice. - Alan J. Bishop, Emeritus Professor, Monash University, Australia
