Kurzinhalt
Young children spend a considerable amount of time at home with a parent or other responsible adult. Thus, if we aim to promote young children’s mathematical knowledge, the home environment should be considered. Parents, however, do not always know how to enrich their young child’s mathematics competencies. As teachers’ knowledge and beliefs impact on students’ learning, parents’ knowledge and beliefs can also impact on children’s early mathematical competencies. Questions to be discussed in the beginning of the project include:
• What do we know from current research regarding parents’ (and other responsible adults’) knowledge and beliefs for engaging young children with mathematical activities?
• What types of interventions with parents have been conducted, and what have we learned from them?
• What specific focus topics have so far been under-researched?
