The authors of this text see the National Numeracy Strategy as the biggest development in primary mathematics teaching for decades. For the Numeracy Strategy to succeed, teachers, maths coordinators and student teachers need to motivate children and parents to perceive and actively enjoy their part in the joint endeavour. In the book, the authors: show how best to approach written and mental maths work; illustrate the value of maths investigations; outline the benefits of non-standard methods of calculation; point out the dangers of "sum stress"; discuss the role of ICT and numeracy; offer advice on how effective home-school links can be harnessed to the National Numeracy Strategy; and stress the enjoyment which can be obtained from all parties involved - parents, teachers and by pupils of all levels of ability.
