N2 - In Israel, there is a mandatory preschool mathematics curriculum. Yet, most preschool teachers have little preparation for teaching mathematics to young chil dren. In this chapter, we present the Cognitive Affective Mathematics Teacher Education (CAMTE) framework that was developed at Tel Aviv University and used to investigate different elements of preschool teachers' knowledge and self efficacy for teaching mathematics. The framework was also used to plan and enact professional development for preschool teachers. The chapter offers a theoretical rationale for the framework and then demonstrates how the framework was used within the context of teaching repeating patterns.
