Research on early childhood mathematics teaching and learning
Among the contributions, three themes stood out: children's mathematical reasoning, early mathematics teaching, and parents' role in children's mathematical development. There was a strong interest in children's reasoning abilities and strategies in problem-solving.
Young children's mathematical problem solving and thinking in a
In the literature in recent years, a number of developmental studies have demonstrated the importance of children entering the school environment with a solid foundation of mathematical content knowledge and argued that problem solving, as an important mathematical process, should be acknowledged in early childhood mathematical education. However, there is less research on how children process ...
Making Math Meaningful for Young Children
Children are natural mathematicians. They push and pull toys, stack blocks, and fill and empty cups of water in the bathtub. All of these activities allow young children to experience math concepts as they experiment with spatial awareness, measurement, and problem solving (ETFO 2010; NAEYC 2010). Young children easily learn as they describe ...

Stories About Young Children's Amazing Math Thinking
Thinking Stories are a collection of resources that offer insights into children's mathematical minds. We know from many years of research that young children (from about age 3 through 6) begin to develop mathematical minds. Sometimes children develop surprising strategies for solving problems. For example:
Mathematical Problem-Solving Through Cooperative Learning—The
Introduction. The research on instruction in mathematical problem-solving has progressed considerably during recent decades. Yet, there is still a need to advance our knowledge on how teachers can support their students in carrying out this complex activity (Lester and Cai, 2016).Results from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) show that only 53% of students from the ...

Why Is Parental Involvement in Children's Mathematics Learning Hard
The first deals with the difficulties that parents experience in supporting their children's learning of mathematics, including differences between parents' own experiences of mathematics at school and children's mathematics learning now, and difficulties negotiating home-school communication, particularly relating to a perceived power ...
Studying children's motives in mathematical problem-solving during
1. Introduction. Mathematical learning is essential during children's education (Claessens & Engel, 2013; Clements & Sarama, 2007).Problem-solving in mathematics is an important process of using mathematical concepts to solve problems (Clements & Sarama, 2014; Lester & Cai, 2016).Children during mathematical problem-solving have opportunities to apply their knowledge of mathematical concepts ...

Brain areas associated with numbers and calculations in children: Meta
Much progress has been made in understanding brain correlates of mathematical cognition; however, despite the increase in the studies examining children's mathematical problem solving (i.e., quantity discrimination and mathematical operations), a neuropsychological model for children is still not available.
PDF Young Children's Drawings in Problem Solving
Research indicates that the use of representations (including physical, verbal and written symbols) can have positive impacts in the teaching and learning of mathematics, by supporting communication of mathematical ideas, understanding of concepts and the solving of problems (Elia et al., 2007). For example, teachers use representations to ...
