EYFS Maths at Wreningham
In the Early years, we approach the teaching of maths through
practical activities and through ‘playful learning’. We use
Development Matters and the EYFS maths guidance to inform
our planning.
We refer to White Rose Maths Hub Scheme of Learning, NRICH and
NCETM early years to support our planning.

There is an emphasis on developing mathematical language through
sorting, matching and comparing as well as exploring pattern and the
ability of subitising objects and images (for instance 5 and 10 frames
and dice patterns). Maths themes and ideas are taught four sessions a
week with a range of supporting activities provided through enhanced
provision.
Assessment is continuous through initial and final
assessments, although for summative assessment we refer to the
ELG and the exemplification materials.
The six key areas of learning in maths are:
Cardinality and Counting
Comparison
Composition
Pattern
Spatial Reasoning (Shape and Space)
Measures

Long wavy grass,
deep cold river

Swirling whirling snowstorm,
narrow gloomy cave...
