This article presents a theoretical framework for a holistic model of the development of early mathematical skills in early childhood education. The first aim of this study was to conduct a comprehensive international review of the literature to explore early mathematical skills categories. The literature review yielded three early mathematical skills categories, namely (1) numerical skills, (2) spatial thinking skills and (3) mathematical thinking and reasoning skills. Previous studies have shown that several mathematical skills develop gradually and simultaneously in early ages and that these skills areas are interconnected in mathematical skills learning. Accordingly, the second aim of this study was to build a holistic theoretical model illustrating the interconnections between the three developing skills categories. The mathematical skills gained in early childhood influence later mathematical achievement. Thus, the importance of simultaneous strengthening of versatile early mathematical skills through conscious early learning practices should be addressed in early mathematical learning.

Teaching Early Mathematical Skills to 3- to 7-Year-Old Children : Differences Related to Mathematical Skill Category, Children’s Age Group and Teachers’ Characteristics
Parviainen, Piia; Eklund, Kenneth; Koivula, Merja; Liinamaa, Tarja; Rutanen, Niina (Springer, 2023)This study explored teaching early mathematical skills to 3- to 7-year-old children in early childhood education and care (ECEC) and pre-primary education. Teachers in ECEC (N = 206) answered a web survey. The first aim ... -
Verbal counting skill predicts later math performance and difficulties in middle school
Koponen, Tuire; Aunola, Kaisa; Nurmi, Jari-Erik (Elsevier, 2019)This study examined the role of verbal counting skill as an early predictor of math performance and difficulties (at or below −1.5 standard deviation in basic math skills) in middle school. The role of fourth-grade level ... -
Experiences of Educational Support for Mathematical High-Ability Children in Finland : A Netnography of Parental Perspective from ECE to the School Context
Harju-Luukkainen, Heidi; Björklund, Camilla; Sandberg, Erja; Rhinehart, Laura (Springer, 2022)Children who are high achievers in mathematics are statistically uncommon. For this reason, very little evidence is available on how this group is supported in preschool and later on in school contexts. In Finland, the ... -
Academic Literacy Supporting Sustainability for Mathematics Education - A Case : Collaborative Working as a Meaning Making for “2/3”?
Perkkilä, Päivi; Joutsenlahti, Jorma (MDPI, 2021)In this article, we focused on sustainable development in mathematics education from the point of view of academic literacy in mathematics (ALM). ALM was understood here through three integrated components: mathematical ... -
Developmental associations of fundamental motor skills and executive functions in preschoolers : The role of the physical activity and the effects on early numeracy
Vanhala, Anssi; Widlund, Anna; Korhonen, Johan; Haapala, Eero A.; Sääkslahti, Arja; Aunio, Pirjo (Elsevier, 2024)Background: Physical activity, fundamental motor skills, executive functions and early numeracy have shown to be related, but very little is known about the developmental relations of these factors. Procedure: We followed ...
