Mathematical Development
Children use mathematical language, such as circle, in front of,
bigger than and more, to describe shape, position, size and
quantity. They recognise and recreate patterns. They are familiar
with number rhymes, songs, stories, counting games and activities.
They compare, sort, match, order, sequence and count using everyday
objects.
They recognise and use numbers to 10 and are familiar with large
numbers from their everyday lives. They begin to use their
mathematical understanding to solve practical problems. Through
practical activities children understand and record numbers, begin
to show awareness of number operations, such as addition and
subtraction, and begin to use the language involved.
Knowledge and Understanding of the World
Children talk about where they live, their environment, their
families and past and present events in their own lives.
