Item description from seller

Oversized paperback, 356 pages, NOT ex-library. Limited wear, good condition with clean and bright pages and unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. A diagonal crease on the front cover. -- This research-based guide presents a complete learning-teaching trajectory, providing educators with a developmental pathway and concrete activities to effectively teach foundational measurement and geometry concepts in the early grades. -- The book is structured into two main sections. The measurement portion outlines a learning path that progresses from comparing and ordering, to pacing off with non-standard units, and finally to using measuring instruments. The geometry section is built on three core principles: orienting (visualizing from various viewpoints), constructing (building, cutting, folding), and operating with figures (transformations like sliding and reflecting). These principles are explored through creative lessons involving mirrors, shadows, and mosaics. A final chapter details the "Building with Blocks" computer program for developing 3D spatial understanding. -- This handbook stands out for its empirically validated learning trajectories, directly informing NCTM-aligned curricula. Unlike generic math guides, it marries theory with classroom-ready lessons based on the highly regarded Dutch TAL project. Practicing teachers, preservice educators, and curriculum developers rely on its intermediate attainment targets to scaffold students from intuitive exploration to formal reasoning. The book remains crucial for reforming early math education, enhancing STEM readiness, problem-solving, and visual-spatial literacy for all learners.…
