1. Maths

2. End of year expectations – Early Learning Goals
Number
Children count reliably with numbers 1 to 20, place them in order and say which number is one more or less than a given number
Using quantities of objects, they add and subtract two single-digit numbers and count on or back to find the number
They solve problems, including doubling, halving and sharing

3. End of year expectations – Early Learning Goals
Shape, Space and Measures
Children use everyday language to talk about size, weight, capacity, distance, time and money to compare quantities, and objects and to solve problems
They recognise, create and describe patterns
They explore characteristics of everyday objects and shapes and use mathematical language to describe them

4. How we teach maths Daily teaching – whole class/group
Group/individual teacher led activities
Independent activities as part of continuous provision
Child initiated activities

5. How you can help at home Make it fun!
Make it relevant – practical activities are best
Make it part of everyday
Play games
Practise counting – forwards and backwards in 1s, 2s, 5s, 10s
