What will you learn?

Many Early Years Educators seek the confidence and reassurance that their provision offers plenty of opportunities for mathematical learning. Sometimes we don’t even realise that what we do on daily basis is all Maths and often we might need just a little sparkle of inspiration to create a rich and stimulating environment that enables children to test their own ideas, come up with solutions and just have fun whilst exploring mathematical concepts through hands-on experiences that are meaningful for the children.

This webinar will provide you with ideas on how to support the development of mathematical knowledge for children in Early Years. We will discuss a range of age-appropriate activities for under 2’s as well as toddlers and preschool. And we will also have a closer look into the role of an adult that has the potential to make a huge difference to the quality of interactions and significantly improve the learning outcomes for our children.

What others said about this webinar:

Loved these ideas, especially about using props (eg teddy bears to help with mathematical concepts) a simple, but I'm sure effective way.
— NIC
It highlights the importance of teaching mathematics in meaningful, hands-on, and enjoyable ways for young children. It supports the idea that children learn best when they are actively engaged in play rather than through formal worksheets or rote teaching.
— RANJANA
This was a great reminder of what math is and that it is all around us, including spacial awareness and patterns. I never considered routines as pattern before. I also liked the emphasis of making everything meaningful to the individual children and their interests.
