Zehra E. Ünal; Asli M. Ala; Gamze Kartal; Serkan Özel; David C. Geary – Journal of Numerical Cognition, 2024
Sixty (35 girls and 25 boys) 9th-grade students' conceptual understanding of the number line was qualitatively assessed through verbal explanations and visual representations. The assessment included an open-ended question focused on students' number line descriptions and the explanations coalesced around six features: sequential ordering (i.e.,…

Michelle M. Tudor – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Number sense is a key indicator of students' future academic success. Students from low socio-economic backgrounds often come to kindergarten lacking number sense skills that other students acquire before they begin formal schooling. Small-group intervention that is focused on number sense skills is an effective way to address this foundational…

O'Rear, Connor D.; Zippert, Erica L.; Ehrman, Patrick; Westerberg, Lauren; Lonigan, Christopher J.; Purpura, David J. – Infant and Child Development, 2023
In two studies, we investigated whether using three-dimensional (3D) manipulatives during assessment aided performance on a variety of preschool mathematics tasks compared to pictorial representations. On measures of children's understanding of counting and cardinality (n = 103), there was no difference in performance between manipulatives and…

Alexandre Cavalcante; Annie Savard; Elena Polotskaia – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
This article proposes an in-depth mathematics analysis of simple and compound interest through an exploration of the mathematical structures underlying these concepts. Financial numeracy concepts (simple and compound interest, interest rates, interest period, present and future value, etc.) have been added to the mathematics curriculum of the…

Paulina Hamukonda; Kakoma Luneta – SAGE Open, 2023
Teachers' knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes contribute to the success of classroom instruction. Teaching approaches that are informed by teachers' good content knowledge of mathematics they teach are regarded as more effective and produce high learning outcomes. It is critical that teachers possess both content and pedagogical content knowledge as…

Arielle Orsini; Jenna Rice; Helena P. Osana; Julie Houle; Anne Lafay – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2023
The Numeracy Kit for Kindergarten 5-Year-Olds (NyKK-5) is a tool to support kindergarten teachers' numeracy practices. Based on a pedagogy of enactment, the NyKK-5 was designed to simulate the types of in-class supports that have been identified as critical elements of effective mathematics professional development (PD). Two groups of teachers…

Susanne Strachota; Ana Stephens; Karisma Morton; Ranza Veltri-Torres; Maria Blanton; Angela Murphy Gardiner; Yewon Sung; Rena Stroud; Eric Knuth – Mathematics Education Research Journal, 2024
This study investigated the role of tools in supporting students to reason about even and odd numbers. Participants included Kindergarten, Grade 1, and Grade 2 students (ages 5-8) at two schools in the USA. Students took part in a cross-sectional early algebra intervention in which they were asked to generalize, represent, justify, and reason with…

Lafay, Anne; Osana, Helena P.; Levin, Joel R. – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2023
We investigated the effect of conceptual transparency in the physical structure of manipulatives on place-value understanding in typically developing children and those at risk for mathematics learning disabilities. Second graders were randomly assigned to one of three manipulatives conditions: (a) attachable beads that did not make the…

Ben Clarke; Christian T. Doabler; Marah Sutherland; Derek Kosty; Jessica Turtura; Keith Smolkowski – Journal of Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2023
This study utilized a partially nested randomized control design to investigate the impact of Fusion, a first-grade math intervention. Blocking on classrooms, students were randomly assigned to one of the three conditions: a Fusion two-student group, a Fusion five student group, or a no-treatment control group. Two primary research questions were…

Bird, Ronit – SAGE Publications Ltd (UK), 2021
This practical book draws on Ronit Bird's teaching experience to create detailed strategies and teaching plans for students aged 9-16 who have difficulties with number. Activities and games are used to teach numeracy skills in these key areas: number components, bridging, multiplication, division and reasoning strategies. New to this edition: (1)…

MacDonald, Beth L. – North American Chapter of the International Group for the Psychology of Mathematics Education, 2018
This proposal explores relationships between young children's unit development/coordination and young children's subitizing. In particular, this theoretical commentary considers students' degrees of abstraction, students' development of actions on units, and students' operations with units when subitizing. As a result of this commentary, this…

Nurnberger-Haag, Julie; Alexander, Anita N.; Powell, Sarah R. – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2021
Although the complexity of children's number learning is recognized, trade books about number have been treated as a simple, undifferentiated set. This analysis of 186 children's books, however, categorized a distinct subset of books about number as "counting books." These counting books were complex with regard to portrayal of counting…

Matt J. Cavanaugh – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Recent studies show that English learning students are a growing population within the United States school system. Language barriers have been shown to negatively influence reading scores as well as math scores, and math scores are a predictor of future academic success in many subject areas. This qualitative action research study demonstrates…

Zippert, Erica L.; Douglas, Ashli-Ann; Tian, Fang; Rittle-Johnson, Bethany – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2021
Preschoolers' repeating patterning knowledge is predictive of their concurrent and later math and numeracy knowledge, but strong experimental evidence is needed to determine if these relations are causal. The purpose of the current study was to examine the causal effects of repeating patterning and numeracy tutoring on repeating patterning,…
