Arithmetical learning is not only a fundamental part of children’s education but it is also central in several daily activities. The focus of this chapter is to analyse how children at different ages use limited mental resources to manage complex mental calculation from a developmental perspective. Moreover, some sections will deal with the processes in children’s minds when they are solving arithmetic problems, paying particular attention to the strategies applied.

Abstract

Arithmetical learning is not only a fundamental part of children’s education but it is also central in several daily activities. The focus of this chapter is to analyse how children at different ages use limited mental resources to manage complex mental calculation from a developmental perspective. Moreover, some sections will deal with the processes in children’s minds when they are solving arithmetic problems, paying particular attention to the strategies applied.
