Course image Darlington and Durham Branch - Practical Priorities for early maths - early maths makes a difference
Branch Events

We know that children's maths at pre-school predicts their school careers and that those who start behind stay behind. This means that early years educators can really make a difference to children's life chances. Research suggests that priorities include spatial reasoning and pattern awareness as well as number sense. During this session we will consider how to foster young children's confidence and enjoyment of maths, with practical suggestions for activities.
