Along with subject knowledge, you need to know what effective teaching of number in primary schools actually looks like. There are many lesson descriptions and resources available for teaching number, but are they any good? Where can you find quality lesson examples, underpinned by theory, written by ITT tutors? This book provides them. It offers exemplar lessons alongside detailed exploration of what makes them good, and the theory behind them. The text encourages you to consider the teaching of number critically and to envisage how you can shape lessons for your own teaching.
