"`Any teacher who uses this book will need to be very much involved in the learning process working through the exercises to fully understand what is required of the students to then be able to (initially) guide the students, particularly the very young students. It is a book that will definitely challenge mathematically promising students…. I recommend this publication' - Catherine Wormald, Gifted This book is designed to help the gene ..."
"Help students make sense of mathematics Rather than merely discussing how to improve students ability to do mathematics, this fifth edition focuses on helping them make sense of mathematics. Based on research on the functioning of the mind as it engages in learning, the text supports teachers as they promote mathematical understanding, strengthen students abilities to think, and help students to attain computational fluency. Fea ..."
"Children in prekindergarten focus on counting and gradually master the essential one-to-one matching of an object to a number. By the end of second grade, they can represent one-, two-, and three-digit numbers, understand simple fractions, and apply a variety of facts and strategies to add and subtract skillfully. Investigations in this book support this progression by inviting students to count and order ducklings in a line, compute th ..."
"Good teaching is responsive to individual differences, tailoring instruction to meet the needs of individual learners. In gifted education, students need a curriculum that is differentiated (by level, complexity, breadth and depth), developmentally appropriate and conducted at a more rapid rate. This collection of essays from experts in the field addresses the particular needs educational institutions have in serving their gifted studen ..."

"This book introduces young children to the basic ideas of comparing and ordering lengths, weights, time, and capacities. Engaging hands-on activities develop these ideas, along with the concept of units of measure and the use of measurement tools. The investigations follow children's natural progression from using many copies of a unit to iterating the unit to using a tool that iterates the unit. The supplemental CD-ROM features interac ..."
