Product Description

Scottish Educational Review
'It should, at the very least, be highly recommended'

Review

"Derek Haylock, the first great teacher of maths that I ever met. This second edition is bang up to date, covering all the maths primary teachers are required to know." 

(Laurie Rousham, Consultant )

"It’s a lucid and coherent embodiment of the wisdom of a highly experienced mathematics educator-a book to be returned to again and again by anyone involved in teaching mathematics at this level." 

(Peter Huckstep )

4.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely essential for any teaching students, 26 Jun 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Mathematics Explained for Primary Teachers, 2nd Ed. (Paperback)
Clear, consise and so useful for both background reading and as an information source for any course of study. Each chapter focuses on a particular mathmatical exercise (division, multiplication, percentages etc) and gives basic, easy-to-follow explanations which can then be reproduced into the classroom. Not many maths books keep me fixated but this is one that is definately worth its money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 29 Dec 2001
This review is from: Mathematics Explained for Primary Teachers, 2nd Ed. (Paperback)
I'm a PGCE maths specialist working with KS 2. This book has helped me to explain in a logical way a wide variety of subjects to the children in my class. My copy is well read and battered and is very much used within my course.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for parents!, 11 Sep 2006
By J. Williams - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Mathematics Explained for Primary Teachers (Paperback)
I was lent this book by my son's teacher because I wanted a better understanding of what he was being taught in maths in order to help him at home. I really enjoyed reading it, revising things I'd forgetten and understanding the current approachs to teaching arithmetic in particular.
It has helped me to practice maths with my children and has also made me more personally appreciative and confident in the subject.
