Combines explanations of mathematical concepts with practical advice on effective ways of teaching the subject. This book provides a framework of good practice. It aims to support and enhance teachers subject knowledge in mathematical topics beyond what is taught to primary children.

This text is a practical guide which supports practitioners to undertake research with confidence and understanding.

This book enables teachers to effectively meet the needs of their most able mathematicians. Using a tried and tested set of principles developed and used by The Able Children's Education Unit at Brunel University, the author demonstrates how to: identify high mathematical ability in a pupil, plan suitably challenging activities and teach them most effectively within the existing National Numeracy framework, make the most of the classroom resources available, including ICT and external agencies, implement strategies for differentiation, illustrated with real-life classroom examples....
