Quality teaching, informed by the best available evidence, helps children develop their number sense from the early years of schooling. To effectively educate students as they navigate numeracy in primary school, teachers need to be able to demonstrate personal content knowledge of the three strands of mathematics content in the NSW syllabus: Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, and Statistics and Probability. Studying this subject, you will become familiar with the content and structure of the mathematics taught in primary school, developing a valuable understanding of key contemporary numeracy teaching tools that apply to mathematics teaching. This subject will encourage you to recognise and analyse the developmental nature of mathematics.
