Longitudinal study of low and high achievers in early mathematics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background. Longitudinal studies allow us to identify, which specific maths skills are weak in young children, and whether there is a continuing weakness in these areas throughout their school years. Aims.

“We Don’t Have Things for Counting”: An Exploration of Early Numeracy Skills and Home Learning Experiences of Children Growing up in Poverty in South Africa

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2023
A child’s home environment has been shown to be related to the development of early numeracy skills in some countries. However, significant relationships between home learning environment and math achievement have not consistently been found, and likely ...

Assessing early numeracy: Significance, trends, nomenclature, context, key topics, learning framework and assessment tasks

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Childhood Education, 2013
This article describes a comprehensive and novel approach to assessment in early numeracy. Topics include the significance of early numeracy, developing a nomenclature for early numeracy, and describing the context for the development of this approach to

Cross-Cultural Comparisons of Home Numeracy and Literacy Environments: Canada, Mexico, and Chile

open access: yesEducation Sciences, 2022
Home numeracy and literacy environments are related to the development of children’s early academic skills. However, the home learning environments of preschool children have been mainly explored with children from North America, Europe, and Asia.

The Influence of Early Literacy Competences on Later Mathematical Attainment: Evidence from TIMSS & PIRLS 2011 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Children’s competence levels before or at school onset are good predictors of their attainment over the school years. Nevertheless, there are large differences in the level of numeracy and literacy knowledge among children at school entry and this ...

Linking quantities and symbols in early numeracy learning

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2022
What is the foundational knowledge that children rely on to provide meaning as they construct an exact symbolic number system? People and animals can quickly and accurately distinguish small exact quantities (i.e., 1 to 3). One possibility is that children’s ability to map small quantities to spoken number words supports their developing exact number ...

Cross-lagged relationship between home numeracy practices and early mathematical skills among Chinese young children

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
The present study examined the cross-lagged relationship between home numeracy practices (e.g., formal teaching, number games, and number application) and early mathematical skills (basic number processing, and arithmetic skills) among Chinese young ...

Patterns of Literacy and Numeracy Activities in Preschool and Their Relation to Structural Characteristics and Children's Home Activities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Early literacy and numeracy activities in family and preschool are considered important for promoting children’s early literacy and numeracy skills. However, little research exists, especially in Germany, on the frequency of such activities in different ...

Individual Differences in Parental Support for Numeracy and Literacy in Early Childhood

open access: yesEducation Sciences, 2021
Past research has examined parental support for children’s math and reading skills in the early years through parents’ reports of their activities with their children in somewhat inconsistent ways.

Home Numeracy and Preschool Children’s Mathematical Development: Expanding Home Numeracy Models to Include Parental Attitudes and Emotions

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2021
Most studies suggest that home numeracy is correlated with preschool children’s current mathematical performance, and also predicts their mathematical performance longitudinally.
