Early Years Maths: How to Create a Nation of Maths Lovers

Home > Early Years Maths: How to Create a Nation of Maths Lovers

Children’s maths confidence at the start of school determines their later maths learning – so early years practitioners can really make a difference to children’s life chances.

Description

This one-day training course delivered by Dr Sue Gifford will support practitioners to help children to love maths by developing current practice, interacting sensitively and playfully through routines, games, blockplay, rhymes and picture books, indoors and outdoors.  Research shows that using maths talk and vocabulary is important from the very early years. In this training, Sue, will draw on learning trajectories such as Birth to Five Matters and the ECMG Spatial Reasoning Toolkit to help to identify key understanding and language - and to plan enjoyable maths learning experiences for children and practitioners.
