Abstract

This working group focuses on mathematics curricula of initial teacher education programmes concerned with preparing teachers for teaching mathematics in the early years of elementary schooling (Foundation Phase). The aim of the working group is to engage PME participants in discussions regarding the knowledge required by prospective teachers for developing Foundation Phase learners’ number sense. Participants will be invited to consider a proposed Foundation Phase teacher education number sense curriculum and to interrogate the theoretical underpinnings of the proposed curriculum.
