Explores the meaning of Mastery in depth and shows clearly what this looks like in children’s play and continuous provision
It is a practice based book – includes full colour photographs, case studies, links to practice and reflective questions
It includes examples from the TFMM exemplification which show how to build on and extend children’s mathematical development and learning – giving ideas for the adults role, the enabling environment and home learning
