    Mathematical development in Reception

    In Reception the children learn about Maths through play and their daily experiences. Our environment both indoors and outdoors is full of Mathematical opportunities and has exciting things for the children to explore, sort, compare, count, calculate and describe. We use Numicon to support our teaching in Reception. The aim of Numicon is to  to equip all children with a deep, secure and adaptable understanding of Mathematical concepts.  Numicon is a multi sensory approach using apparatus to focus on imagery, action and conversation. It is designed to give children the understanding of number ideas and number relationships that are essential for success in Maths.
