Maths

The statutory framework for the EYFS states that during the early years, children need to 'develop a strong grounding in number' in order for children to develop the 'building blocks' needed for them to 'excel mathematically'.

 

The statutory framework discusses that children should be able to count confidently and develop a deep understanding of the numbers to 10. Children receive lots of opportunities to build up their knowledge and apply what they have learned using manipulatives, such as 'pebbles and tens frames for organising counting'. It is through a variety of frequent opportunities that children increase their knowledge and are able to build a mastery of mathematics.

 

We also support children to develop a positive attitude and model how to look for patterns and spot connections. It is also essential that children are encouraged to 'have a go', talk to adults and their peers about the things they notice, and are not concerned about making mistakes.
