Numeracy and Beyond: Applying Mathematics in the Primary School

Using and applying mathematics has been a central component of the National Curriculum in mathematics. However, the National Numeracy Strategy has adopted a new approach, in which 'using and applying' is integrated throughout the mathematics curriculum. This book aims to help teachers develop their understanding and practice in this crucial area. It provides a clear conceptual analysis of the problem of application, together with extensive examples of ways in which teachers can address it in their classrooms at Key Stages 1 and 2.

There are many connecting ideas in primary mathematics. The main aim of this book is to identify them in order to help teachers develop children's understanding of mathematics. The book:
· Emphasizes the relationship between language, notation and representation
· Identifies misconceptions that can develop from false connections
· Gives activities for students to clarify their understanding
This book can be used by both students training to be teachers and by teachers re-considering their approach to mathematics as part of professional development.

Exploring Probability in School provides a new perspective into research on the teaching and learning of probability. It creates this perspective by recognizing and analysing the special challenges faced by teachers and learners in contemporary classrooms where probability has recently become a mainstream part of the curriculum from early childhood through high school. The authors of the book discuss the nature of probability, look at the meaning of probabilistic literacy, and examine student access to powerful ideas in probability during the elementary, middle, and high school years.
