Uncovering Mathematics

Hello and a warm welcome to The GEN Report - a weekly source of inspiration and insight for the global education community.

This is the fourth in our series exploring the journey of learning mathematics from early childhood through high school. While the terminology may differ (K-12, 3-18, KS1-KS5), the most effective teaching approaches have universal application.

In this edition, we focus on teaching early mathematics and, arguably, the most important experiences our children will have with mathematical ideas.

However, there is little agreement on how early maths might best be taught. We draw from the empirical literature to paint a picture of research-based and research-validated pedagogical approaches and strategies.
