Teaching and Learning Early Number is a bestselling guide for all trainee and practising Early Years teachers and classroom assistants. It provides an accessible guide to a wide range of research evidence about the teaching and learning of early number.

• A new introductory chapter to set the scene
• Six further new chapters - including Mathematics through play, Children's mathematical graphics and Interview-based assessment of early number knowledge
• Six completely re-written chapters and two updated chapters
• A new concluding chapter looking to the future
