  Updated and amended to take account of the National Numeracy Strategy and to emphasize the importance of teachers' own mathematical knowledge, this text aims to provide students, NQTs and practising teachers with the background to teach mathematics to children aged three to eleven. The book mixes idealism and pragmatism: idealism in identifying important principles which underpin mathematics teaching and provide a sense of direction for teachers; pragmatism in recognizing the structures within which teachers are now working.
