| Description: | |||
This unit is designed to equip student teachers with the necessary skills to become mathematics specialists in their schools, particularly in upper primary. As well as building an understanding of the primary to secondary education transition, students will build competence in the fundamental geometric concepts that need to be established by primary children before they may successfully embark on more abstract geometric concepts in their early secondary years.
