Mathematics Explained for Primary Teachers 
Korisniški Ratings: - Very good. This was the first time i had pirchased a second hand book, however it arrived quickly and is in fairly good nick. This sale has encouraged me to do this more. Good sale :)
- really readable. an enjoyably readable book that explained the priciples behind the teaching theory. I liked being able to pick out certain areas to read without slogging through the whole book. Brilliant
- alphabet. This is the book to buy on teaching this subject. It is clearly written, beautifully laid out and provides self assessment exercises to work through in order to clarify what has just been read. There are more provided on the cd rom at the back of the book too. If you are teaching this subject for the first time, moving up or down years or simply want to refresh your knowledge and rekindle your enthusiasm then this is the book for you.
- A lifesaver. This book is a must for trainee teachers lacking confidence with their maths knowledge and teaching. The author empathises with the trepidation of maths, and offers clear and simple explanations. The chapters are clearly divided for when you need that quick knowledge top-up when lesson planning, and the self-test questions are a great confidence boost! The book also offers techniques that complement the new NNS teaching strategies (e.g. partitioning, multiplication grids etc).
- Superb!. After teaching primary maths for 14 years, and being the KS2 maths subject leader for 13 of those, I have no hesitation in rating this easily the best book I have ever read on the subject. Forget all those expensive courses, and trying to negotiate the endless tweaking of the NNS, save money by using this book to deliver a series of INSETs. Unbeatable value!
