Mathematics Is More Than Counting


Real understanding of math can only develop if children are given the opportunity to play in ways which will give them a base for later abstracting. They must act, experiment, and experience. This booklet examines various kinds of play that are useful in developing a basis for abstract thinking. Kristina Leeb-Lundberg. 1993. 21 pp. ISBN-13 978-0-87173-110-4
