This is the book for teachers want children to enjoy the challenge of learning mathematics and who wish to experiment with their teaching, to create rather than react, and take risks rather than play it safe. This is an accessible and jargon-free practical guide to making math meaningful, challenging, and interesting. It provides useful activities and advice for teachers, students, parents, and others who support children's learning.

Part 1 is organized around the strands of the National Numeracy Strategy. The emphasis is on developing different approaches to practical activities with children, noticing what happens, and building the necessary teaching skills around what works for you. Part 2 develops more complex teaching strategies including how to optimize interactive teaching.
