All early childhood teachers—those working with infants and toddlers through the primary grades—play an important role in laying a foundation for children’s future success in math. Promoting children’s math skills is easier than many think given that young children have an inherent understanding of mathematics (just think of the last time you gave a disproportionate number of treats to children— I’m sure the children let you know who had fewer and who had more!). Building off this natural mathematical inclination is a great starting point. However, research shows that for children to be successful in future math endeavors, this isn’t enough. It is important for teachers to actively incorporate mathematics into the daily curriculum.
