The theme was the interconnectedness of learning, including how early (informal) learning in the domain provides a foundation for school (formal) learning. As an example, he outlined a number-sense view of basic number-fact learning—how fluency with basic sums and differences in the primary grades depends on development in the preschool ...
Traditional mathematics education has been challenged by several reform movements over the last several decades, notably new math, a now largely abandoned and discredited set of alternative methods, and most recently reform or standards-based mathematics based on NCTM standards, which is federally supported and has been widely adopted, but ...
An important potential application of perceptual learning is the acquisition of skill for practical purposes.

The first couple of years of childhood are considered to be a vital part of life for the development of numeracy and literacy. [20] There are many components that play key roles in the development of numeracy at a young age, such as Socioeconomic Status (SES), parenting, Home Learning Environment (HLE), and age. [20]
Discovery math: a constructivist method of teaching (discovery learning) mathematics which centres around problem-based or inquiry-based learning, with the use of open-ended questions and manipulative tools. [23] This type of mathematics education was implemented in various parts of Canada beginning in 2005. [24]
For example, Math Circles are after-school enrichment programs where students engage with mathematics through lectures and activities; there are also some teachers who encourage student engagement by teaching mathematics in kinesthetic learning. In a general Math Circle lesson, students use pattern finding, observation, and exploration to make ...
Fluency is a speech language pathology term which means the smoothness or flow with which sounds, syllables, words and phrases are joined when speaking quickly. [2] The term fluency disorder has been used as a collective term for cluttering and stuttering. Both disorders have breaks in the fluidity of speech, and both have the fluency breakdown ...
