This resource pack investigates the efficacy of a multi-sensory, tactile approach to teaching foundational mathematics to children aged five to seven. The Oxford Dictionaries staff provides a structured pedagogical framework that utilizes physical manipulatives to bridge the gap between abstract numerical concepts and concrete understanding. By integrating visual and kinesthetic learning tools, the curriculum aims to build fluency, reasoning, and problem-solving skills in early learners.
