From the year before learners enter formal schooling (Grade R) to the end of the Foundation Phase (Grade 3), teachers contribute to the most important learning cycle and lay the groundwork for learners for the rest of their schooling years.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eTeaching Foundation Phase Mathematics\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis an essential guide to preparing classrooms, planning lessons and teaching mathematics with confidence in a multicultural classroom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTeaching Foundation Phase Mathematics\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eprovides crucial insights into basic principles that are applied both globally and locally, with an in-depth discussion of the concepts and theories that underlie the teaching of mathematics to learners at a young age. The terms Africanisation, decolonisation of the curriculum and ethnomathematics are discussed. With careful consideration of the CAPS documents issued by the Department of Basic Education in 2012, themes revolve around the physical, social and conceptual knowledge that learners need to acquire and build on in mathematics in order to fully comprehend and develop their skills for the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn recognition of the technological demands of the modern era, each chapter integrates elements of coding and robotics to demonstrate the natural links between mathematical reasoning, problem solving and computational thinking. These examples help future teachers connect mathematics to digital literacy and prepare learners for participation in a technology-driven world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContents
