#069 Helen Williams: Early Years teaching and manipulatives

Dr Helen Williams has been teaching, and learning about
mathematics teaching, for over 30 years. Her particular expertise
is in learning maths with children from 3 to 8 years of age,
which is most certainly not my area of expertise! In this
wide-ranging conversation, we discuss exactly what an early years
maths lesson might look like, why manipulatives are so important
for children of all ages, and why Helen is not exactly sold on
Cognitive Load Theory!
