Introduction
Gallery 1 guides you through the
range of marks and young children's development of written number
and early 'written' calculations (examples from Worthington &
Carruthers, 2003)
In Gallery 2 and 3 we showcase
examples from teachers who are exploring children's mathematical
graphics in their settings and schools. The teachers tell their own
stories and provide short case-studies that may provide you with
valuable entry points to mathematical graphics in your setting.
Gallery 4 showcases numerous
examples of children's mathematical graphics: many of these
are explored in more detail in
Children’s Mathematics: Making Marks, Making Meaning
Gallery 5 and 6: showcases numerous
recent examples of graphicacy and children's mathematical
graphics, from a wide range of early childhood settings These
lovely new examples are explored in more detail in our second book,
