Parents supporting learning: a non-intensive intervention supporting literacy and numeracy in the home learning environment (2016, methodology): “Research has shown that the HLE is closely associated with early child competencies and is a significant predictor of children’s cognitive development (see for example Melhuish et al. 2008; Niklas and Schneider 2013, 2014; Sénéchal and LeFevre 2002).”
Math talk during informal learning activities in Head Start families (2015, background): “Similar to the early home literacy environment, the early home numeracy environment is being increasingly recognized as a critical contributor to children’s early numerical knowledge (Niklas & Schneider, 2013).”
Maternal Math Talk in the Home and Math Skills in Preschool Children (2016, background): “Only recently has research devoted attention to the math experiences that children have at home before schooling (i.e., home numeracy) and how these encounters support numerical development (LeFevre et al., 2009; Niklas & Schneider, 2014).”
Improving Preschoolers’ Numerical Abilities by Enhancing the Home Numeracy Environment (2016, background): “The association of family background variables and the HNE, however, seems to be less clear cut (e.g., LeFevre et al., 2010; Niklas & Schneider, 2014).”
Distinct Influences of Mothers and Fathers on Kindergartners’ Numeracy Performance: The Role of Math Anxiety, Home Numeracy Practices, and Numeracy Expectations (2017, background): “…LeFevre et al. (2010), who found that parents’ attitudes toward math influenced their involvement in direct numeracy practices with their children; Niklas and Schneider (2014), who found that parents with a history of dyscalculia engaged in less home numeracy than families without those…”
