Early maths learning crucial for development of youngsters


No caption or photo credit required

I REFER to the letter “Invest in quality preschool education” (The Star, April 17) in which the writers stressed the importance of quality early education not only for academic results but also for the emotional and social development of children.

As an educator myself, I would like to add another point to consider, namely how early childhood education can help to prepare children for learning maths in school.
