Number Identification: A Unique Developmental Pathway in Mathematics? (2018)
Journal Article
Cramman, H., Gott, S., Little, J., Merrell, C., Tymms, P., & Copping, L. (2020). Number Identification: A Unique Developmental Pathway in Mathematics?. Research Papers in Education, 35(2), 117-143. https://doi.org/10.1080/02671522.2018.1536890

We make a prima facie case for identifying a single pathway in the learning of Hindu-Arabic numerical symbols and discuss why this ability may be a critical gateway concept in developing mathematical competencies. A representative sample of English a... Read More about Number Identification: A Unique Developmental Pathway in Mathematics?.

Primary School Entry Assessment in New Zealand (2017)
Journal Article
Boereboom, J., & Cramman, H. (2018). Primary School Entry Assessment in New Zealand. NZ international research in early childhood education journal, 21(1), 47-61

There is a wide range of assessment tools used by schools to assess children at school entry in New Zealand. The lack of consistency of uptake and reporting of results leads to sporadic national data. This highlights a need for a national standardise...

Name writing ability not length of name is predictive of future academic attainment (2016)
Journal Article
Copping, L., Cramman, H., Gott, S., Gray, H., & Tymms, P. (2016). Name writing ability not length of name is predictive of future academic attainment. Educational Research, 58(3), 237-246. https://doi.org/10.1080/00131881.2016.1184948

Background: The Performance Indicators in Primary Schools On Entry Baseline assessment for pupils starting school includes an item which aims to assess how well a pupil writes his or her own name. There is some debate regarding the utility of this me... Read More about Name writing ability not length of name is predictive of future academic attainment.
