IMPLEMENTATION
We learn all about our numbers!
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Our numbers are the building blocks in mathematics, we start early singing number songs with visual prompts and written numbers. We use our maths stations which are equipped with an assortment of blocks, beads, teddies, shells etc to make maths fun. We count confidently, we learn about the relationships between numbers, what comes before, what comes next and we recognise patterns in numbers. We explore outside gathering up nuts and pinecones and we use them in our maths work. We count out loud as our friends hide amongst the trees and the flower beds. We look for shapes in everything we do and we relate maths to our everyday life.

We learn our colours
and can copy simple colour sequences. We use mathematical speech, positional language and comparisons in sizes, length and weight when playing in the water, sand, during obstacle courses and during everyday play. Children enjoy designing and constructing with a range of materials from blocks to stickle bricks to recycled junk.
EVERYONE HAS A GO, MATHS IS FUN AT LEAPING FROGS!
