Shape (2D and 3D)
Measurement
Money
Information Handling

3. Our Aim
Enhance children’s natural interest in mathematics and build confidence.
Build on children’s previous experiences and knowledge.
Integrate mathematics into other activities and subject areas.
Provide a play-based and exploratory context for maths, encouraging children to solve problems.

5. Number There is a lot more to number than simply being able to count.
We wish for children to experience number in a variety of contexts & environments and have a true understanding of what they represent.
Every opportunity at home could be seen as an opportunity to develop number sense and mathematical thinking.
