Teaching Number Sense, Kindergarten

Teaching Number Sense, Kindergarten is one of a three-book series that focuses on the critical role that number sense plays in developing mathematical understanding. Number sense encompasses a wide range of abilities, including being able to make reasonable estimates and to think and reason flexibly. The lessons in the Kindergarten book help students develop good number intuition and the ability to see numbers as tools, not barriers. In these lessons, children investigate number relationships, practice problem solving using landmark numbers, and explore ways to count, compose, and decompose numbers.
