Growing Mathematical Ideas in Kindergarten

Rating:
Summary: An excellent resource for kindergarten teachers!
Review: As a new kindergarten teacher, I found Dacey's and Eston's book to be a wonderful resource. The authors weave together their conceptual framework with many, many examples of student work and lesson plans. I found the dialogues between student and teacher to be especially helpful because they provided insights into how to frame questions that encourage extended mathematical thinking. The book is enjoyable to read and provides two excellent appendices of additional resources and an extensive bibliography.
