This book covers the elementary school mathematics curriculum common in most parts of the world. Its aim is to serve educators (the teachers and parents) as a guide for teaching mathematics at elementary school level. The book focuses both on content knowledge and on pedagogical content knowledge. It bridges the gap between fundamental mathematical principles and good teaching practices. It also offers the reader a glimpse on how mathematicians perceive elementary mathematics and it presents ideas for specific mathematical activities. Readership: Elementary school teachers; parents of elementary school children (whether through home schooling or in public education, through PTA activity, and others) or anyone who wishes to rediscover the mathematics they studied at a young age from a more mature point of view.

Aligned with NCTM standards and focal points, this resource offers ready-to-use lessons that include brain-compatible math activities, step-by-step instructions for the teacher, and all the necessary reproducibles.
