Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. Many classrooms now emphasize having children recite rote counting, memorize mathematics facts, and drill mathematics concepts. In these early education classrooms, blocks and manipulatives are items that children play with once they have completed their math work. 2. Mathematic activities can be integrated into most daily activities. 3. Research has found that programs claiming to be "complete" programs continue to advance children's knowledge and reasoning abilities to higher levels rather than merely repeat concepts that children already know. 4. Throughout their day, young children encounter situations that require problem-solving and reasoning abilities. These skills further transfer to students' literacy development as they apply these skills when reading and making meaning from text. 5. Most children who have a delay in attaining literacy skills also have a delay in the development of mathematics.
