Even before formal schooling begins, there are significant developments in children's counting ability (e.g., Baroody & Ginsburg, 1982; Fuson & Hall, 1983; Gelman & Gallistel, 1978; Ginsburg, 1982; Schaeffer, Eggleston, & Scott, 1974). The child begins to learn the number-word sequence (rote counting) and then uses this sequence to count sets (object counting). Recently, some resea rchers (e.g., Briars & Siegler, 1981; Fuson & Hall, 1983; Wagner & Walters, 1982) have questioned Gelman and Gallistel's (1978) assertion that these two counting abilities are governed by (implicit) principles.

This article describes a comprehensive and novel approach to assessment in early numeracy. Topics include the significance of early numeracy, developing a nomenclature for early numeracy, and describing the context for the development of this approach to assessment. The largely unrealised importance of numerals and numeral sequences in early numeracy, the significance of counting and its distinction from saying a number word sequence, the important topics of structuring numbers in the range 1 to 20 and conceptual place value, the Learning Framework in Number and its use in profiling children’s early numeracy knowledge, and important assessment tasks are explored.

These books are the result of two impressive research programs in the area of early counting and number concepts, conducted by researchers who have dedicated a large number of years to this endeavor. Steffe and Cobb used a constructivist, case-study paradigm to investigate the development of ftrst and second graders' counting structures, including the meaning they gave to their counting and the strategies they used to find sums and differences. Fuson generally employed crosssectional and interview approaches to study changes in the number word sequence, correspondence errors, and concepts of cardinality of children from 2 to 8 years of age. Both projects reaffirm that work in this area lies at the cutting edge of research in both mathematics education and educational/cognitive psychology.
