Maths1.6 Educational programmes must involve
activities and experiences for children, as follows …
… Mathematics involves providing children with opportunities to develop and improve their skills in counting, understanding and using numbers, calculating simple addition and subtraction problems; and to describe shapes, spaces, and measures.

Early Learning Goal 11: numbersChildren count reliably with numbers from one to 20, place them in
order and say which number is one more or one less than a given number. Using quantities and objects, they add and subtract two single-digit numbers and count on or back to find the answer. They solve problems, including doubling, halving and sharing.
Explanatory note: Within play and other practical situations, the child counts and orders numbers from 1-20 and finds one more or one fewer than a given number. Using every day and play objects, the child applies a range of strategies to add and subtract quantities involving two single-digit numbers such as counting on to add and counting back to subtract. In a range of practical and play contexts the child explores and solves problems involving doubling, halving and sharing, utilising his or her own methods.

Early Learning Goal 12: shape space and measuresChildren use everyday language to talk about size, weight,
capacity, position, 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.
Explanatory note: The child uses everyday language to share their thinking about size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time and money. The child demonstrates that they understand that one quantity is different to another even if they do not know the correct comparative term. The child is able to recognise and describe patterns and notices them in the environment. The child makes patterns using a range of media and resources. The child notices and describes everyday objects and shapes using appropriate mathematical language.

Ofsted … has yet to provide further opportunities to fully
support younger children’s awareness of number, shape, space and measure during every day play opportunities
… does not fully maximise opportunities to consistently support younger children’s awareness of number during daily play and activities
…opportunities to use mathematical language in a variety of situations are sometimes missed

Ofsted….does not yet provide opportunities for
older children to develop mark making skills
Assessments of some children’s progress have yet to include their achievements within the specific areas of learning. This information has then yet to be used to plan future challenging experiences to effectively ensure children are making progress across all areas of learning.

Songs and rhymesImportant for introducing, reinforcing and
consolidating not just numbers and their names, but also mathematical concepts and early counting skills
Do we give enough thought to what these types of rhymes actually achieve?
Are in danger of thinking that all number rhymes and songs are beneficial to all children at all stages of their development?
Analyse the mathematical concepts held within each rhyme and, in a truly mathematical approach, find the right sequence in which to present them.

EYFS Statutory FrameworkPlanned, purposeful play
A mix of adult-led and child-initiated activity
Play is essential for children’s development
Children learn by leading their own play, and by taking part in play which is guided by adults.
Respond to each child’s emerging needs and interests
Shift towards more adult led activity as development allows
