Everyday Maths through everyday provision

Target Audience
Early Years Practitioners working with 3-5 year olds

Course Outline
This interactive day course provides a balance of theory, practice and lively discussion exploring how practitioners can ensure that the children in their care get the very best mathematical start to their learning journey. It’s a day full of inspiring yet simple ideas and real stories straight from a busy, bustling EYFS setting. A course rich in practical ideas to inspire you to weave maths through the very heart of your setting and have fun whilst doing it without resorting to formal, developmentally inappropriate approaches!

Course Objectives
Delegates will have opportunities to:

  • Explore how maths can be promoted through continuous provision inside and outside in the enabling EYFS environment.
  • Consider the vital role of the adult in supporting mathematical learning and talk.
  • Think reflectively about the mathematical opportunities offered to children in their care and ways to enhance and improve it further.
  • Consider and challenge the negative attitudes sometimes perceived about mathematics and consider how this affects young children and the provision offered.
