The construction of a fundamental understanding of numeration and place value concepts forms the foundation for all additional branches of mathematics (Booker‚ et al.‚ 2010). Computational processes and patterns of thinking require a clear understanding of these concepts‚ as they underpin the learning and use of mathematics (Booker et al.‚ 2010). Developing mathematical thinking from an early age is extremely important in establishing students understanding of number concepts. Clements (2001‚ p271)

Support Literacy and Numeracy Activities: Children with English as an Additional Language (EAL) 1. Why is it important to know if a child is not fluent in English? (Think about how this may affect a child’s learning). It is important that the teachers who work with the “EAL” child know that he may not always understand what is being said to him‚ because he speaks a different language at home. Teachers need to make a special effort to ensure he does understand‚ by demonstrating to him‚ showing
