Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mathematical Construction, Informal Number Work, for Busy Hands: Grades One and Two
The possible number relations found in the process of the construction of an article should be brought out carefully by the teacher. While the child is making something he is in a receptive mood for this number work. Each step gives new surfaces or lines to compare.
When the teacher artfully questions, giving concrete problems regarding these ever changing lines and surfaces, she gets answers from alert minds; minds that are comparing and coming to conclusions then and there; minds that are not trying to remember What the teacher said yesterday or a week ago; minds that are seeing and drawing inferences at the present moment.
