MATHS
Maths is all around us, particularly in your setting! Whether it’s comparing volumes in the water tray, measuring out ingredients in the mud kitchen, or talking about whose tower is biggest or smallest in the construction zone – you may be pleasantly surprised at how much is covered. The resources in this section will help children to have a more thorough understanding of number, linking their names to the numeral, their value, and their position in the counting order. They will also help children to subitise, recall simple number facts and bonds and to explore numerical patterns, as laid out in the EYFS.
