CAREER: Investigating Young Children's Opportunities to Learn Mathematics in Early Childhood Classrooms

This project investigates young children’s mathematical learning from preschool to kindergarten (ages 3-6). Data include video documenting children’s participation in instructional activities (e.g., Counting Collections), field notes, photographs, and interviews with children and teachers. Following individuals contributes to our understanding of the varied ways children navigate opportunities to participate in mathematics, their perspectives of what knowing and doing mathematics entails, and the resources they draw upon to engage in mathematical practices.
