Mathematics Milestones
Our Autumn maths activities
Like the rest of the school, we follow the White Rose scheme for maths. Many of the Early Years concepts are introduced through a story to 'hook' the children in. The sessions are all very practical- with the children manipulating resources to develop the children's understanding of the number system.
