Invaluable for primary teachers
Providing an extremely sound basis of mathematical knowledge in preparation for teaching maths to primary children, this book is a must-read for anyone training to teach or already teaching. I am not a confident mathematician, but this book has given me a firm understanding of everything I need to know, given me the opportunity to get inside what is going on, and is something I still refer to.
