In 2019, the Research Work Group of the Family Math Implementation Roadmap supported a literature review of the Family Math field. This white paper, Reviewing the Family Math Literature: Recommendations for Practice, Policy and Research, summarizes the researchers’ findings on several topics, including: What skills serve as foundation for children’s math achievement, and what other characteristics are linked to differences in early math? What aspects of family math engagement are most strong related to children’s math learning, achievement and attitudes? What do we know about how families are engaging in children’s early math learning as part of their day-to-day lives?
The authors of the white paper also wrote two-pagers with recommendations for policymakers, practitioners and researchers. The executive summary and the recommendations two-pagers can be accessed at the links below.
