Parents and teachers know that reading to children is an important part of developing literacy, but when it comes to developing mathematical thinking, these same people can feel unsure about how to jumpstart a young child's understanding of numbers. School psychologist Daniel Zaccaro and math educator Ed Zaccaro combine their expertise to create Pathways to Mathematical Understanding: Early Childhood to Middle School to help those who work with young children. This book is for teachers, parents, and homeschool teachers of children ages 2-12 who want to provide a strong foundation for early math concepts and build upon those skills with more complex mathematical thinking. More than 550 engaging problems with increasing levels of difficulty, along with activities and resources, give children opportunities to practice skills and reinforce learning.
