Mathematics

Children will be able to count with numbers from 0-20. We encourage them to have a strong sense of number and be confident to tell us one more and one less than a given number. With a confident understanding of number they will then be able to approach addition and subtraction. We encourage the children to use everyday language to talk about size, weight, capacity, distance, time and money. They recognise shapes in their environment and can describe them as well as noticing patterns around them.
