This project will equip you to identify, understand, observe and trial the key features involved in designing effective practice for Early Years mathematics.  The focus will be on what effective EY maths pedagogy is and how this develops into a ‘Teaching for Mastery’ approach in later years.

 

Teachers’ will: 

 

1) Identify what is effective EY maths pedagogy

2) Know the progression within cardinality, composition and subitising

3) Know how to scaffold children’s learning for the Teaching for Mastery approach

Audience:

 

  • School based practitioners who are in their first few years of teaching in the Early Years or who have recently moved into Nursery or Reception
