Mathematics
for educators brings together practical insight
into mathematical knowledge and skills for Foundation Phase and Intermediate Phase
student teachers and all primary school teachers, as well as those not teaching
mathematics as a subject. Written in a clear style and amply illustrated, the
book is a comprehensive yet user-friendly guide to mathematics content with a
South African focus, informed by problem solving as theoretical framework. The
book aims to raise standards of education in primary schools in South Africa
and will be an invaluable tool and reference work.
