Synopsis

This book introduces a novel mathematical system for young learners based on simple counting, avoiding the complexities of written numbers. The author posits that by teaching counting and numbering objectively first, and then abstractly, pupils are better able to understand the essence of numbers and arithmetic operations. In this book, readers will find a detailed explanation of the system including practical tips for teaching using this method. Furthermore, the author explores the importance of distinguishing between the way we speak about numbers and their meaning, and how this can support a deeper understanding of arithmetic. This book will provide invaluable guidance to teachers and home educators alike and will revolutionize how mathematics is taught to young children by making it accessible, intuitive, and enjoyable.
