Donald L. Chambers (ed)
Features almost 70 articles primarily from the research sections of Teaching Children Mathematics and its predecessor Arithmetic Teacher (the NCTM journal for primary school teachers). The papers are collected into five areas: Reasoning, Communicating and Problem Solving; Children’s Thinking in the Content Domains (including numbers, place value, fractions, geometry and spatial sense, algebraic reasoning and statistics); Tools for Representing Mathematical Ideas; Mathematics for All (addressing issues of equity); and Teaching and Research. The articles are easy to read and the content emphasises application in the classroom. A valuable collection for teachers and pre-service teachers who want to be informed about research related to teaching and learning mathematics, to examine and reflect on their own teaching, and to use research results to influence their classroom practice.
