I saw some fantastic EYFS math @TheCroftPrimary last week. Alongside high-quality adult-child interactions and teaching, children are exploring, playing and discovering maths every day through their provision. As @EducEndowFoundn says: “Effective early numeracy approaches typically increase children’s learning by about seven months” showing us how much potential is within our early years environments. When we weave maths into play, conversation and daily routines, we help children build strong, confident foundations and see maths as a way to understand the world around them. #EarlyYearsMathematics #EEF #EYFS #TWHFEnRich
