Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This curriculum investigates how concrete, hands-on exploration can establish a foundational understanding of mathematical concepts for young learners. Mary B. Baratta-Lorton draws upon decades of classroom experience to provide a structured framework that shifts the focus from rote memorization to active discovery. The program argues that children develop stronger numerical literacy when they interact with physical materials to solve problems and recognize patterns.
