A large body of research shows that developing early mathematical skills has
a profound impact on later mathematical and reading abilities (Clements &
Sarama 2014; Duncan et al., 2007). McCain and Mustard (1999) argue that
children’s preschool experiences are crucial for their future competence and effective
problem solving and have an influence on health and employment. It is sensible to
integrate mathematics with other curricular areas in preschool, as the Kindergarten
Curriculum (1999) dictates. Cross-curricular integration can elevate the quality of the
educational process, which is in line with the characteristics of children’s development
and learning. It can lead to better academic success, a deeper understanding and better
application of knowledge, and more permanent knowledge, while preparing children
for lifelong learning (Lake, 1994).
Despite numerous studies (Claessens, Engel & Curran, 2013; Zigler, 2006)
reporting on the importance and benefits of early mathema...tics learning and its
integration with other areas, preschool mathematics activities are not as common as
we would expect. The problem may stem from educators’ lack of confidence in their
mathematics skills and their poor understanding of the concept of cross-curricular
integration.
