Duke, Roger; Graham, Alan; Johnston-Wilder, Sue – Mathematics Teaching Incorporating Micromath, 2007
This article describes a recent and successful initiative on teaching place value and the decomposition method of subtraction to pupils having difficulty with this technique in the 9-12-year age range. The aim of the research was to explore whether using the metaphor of selling chews (i.e., sweets) in a tuck shop and developing this into an iconic…

Clark, Garry – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2006
Calculators can be used in primary schools in a number of situations. They are most beneficial when working with large numbers, dealing with real data that leads to complex calculations, performing repetitive calculations, developing concepts, estimating and checking, problem solving, and looking for patterns and/or relationships. But what if the…

Liljedahl, Peter; Sinclair, Nathalie; Zazkis, Rina – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science & Technology, 2006
This study focuses on the nature of preservice elementary school teachers' understandings of several concepts in elementary number theory that are evoked by a computer-based microworld called "Number Worlds". In particular, the focus is on the concepts of factor, multiple and prime number. The notion of "thickness" is examined with respect to…
