NOTE ON BOOK CONDITION (SEE PHOTO BEFORE ORDERING):
Maths with Mummy introduces young children to mathematics. What should a child learn during this first introduction? Obviously this basic information must include numbers from one to ten, simple mathematical operations using them, and the main geometrical figures. At the same time the modern approach to teaching mathematics is in favour of extending the range of this traditional information to include new concepts such as multitude, relationship (including comparing numbers of different magnitude) and the unknown. We also believe that this initial stage should teach children to distinguish and classify objects according to different characteristics and to add up these combinations when necessary. Children should also learn to develop simple measurement skills.
