ENGAGING FAMILIES AS CHILDRENS FIRST MATHEMATIC...

This book explores how professionals can engage and inspire parents to support their young
children's mathematics learning. Bringing together international experts  researchers and
scholars  it proposes a framework for engaging with and supporting parents  including those who
are less aware of the crucial development of children's mathematical skills in the early years.
Focusing on mathematics learning from birth to 5 years  the book's underlying assumption is
that it is possible to offer guidance to professionals working with families with young
children concerning how to engage and support families in the area of mathematics learning 
including those families who seem alienated from education services. Specifically  the
respective chapters present a framework for understanding children's early mathematical
development and the important role of families in this regard. They describe effective
strategies for engaging families in their children's mathematics learning  including those who
are marginalised and experience multiple disadvantages  so that all families can best support
their children's mathematical learning and their development of positive attitudes towards
learning. In closing  hurdles and opportunities within the systems surrounding family
engagement are addressed.
