Abstract |
: |
There is growing evidence that preschool children could profit from more challenging mathematical program, and are capable to learn more complicated mathematical ideas, especially if they are presented with the appropriate ways for children’s learning in this age. However, practices in preschool numeracy learning in Saudi Arabia do not reach the desired expectations, and are not up to recent research findings. This study aims to present part of a mathematics program for preschool age, which is Big Math for Little Kids (BMLK), to examine its efficiency in improving children’s mathematical abilities in the area of number. The effectiveness of this intervention will be explored through comparing children’s performance in a pre- and post-test using TEMA-2 with experimental and control groups. In addition, teachers’ reflection on their practices will be qualitatively analyzed to find out if there is a necessity to modify any of the number unit components, according to practical and cultural considerations.
Such study entails providing the required materials for implementation, including the implemented program |
