Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood serves as a call to action to improve the state of early childhood mathematics.

Relying on a comprehensive review of the research, Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood lays out the critical areas that should be the focus of young children’s early mathematics education, explores the extent to which they are currently being incorporated in early childhood settings, and identifies the changes needed to improve the quality of mathematics experiences for young children.

This book will be especially useful for policy makers and practitioners-those who work directly with children and their families in shaping the policies that affect the education of young children.
