This day will look at the Statutory Framework for the EYFS and the concepts covered in teaching Early Number. We will identify the Early Learning Goals for number and counting and identify what the terms mean in practice. For example - what does a 'deep understanding of numbers' mean? What are the two types of subitising and why are they important? How can we best teach subitising, number bonds and composition of number? We will look at appropriate pedagogical strategies for teaching these. A range of manipulatives and representations will be explored for teaching about subitising, the composition of number and number bonds. Resources will be explored that will help you to teach the concepts more effectively through intentional learning and continuous provision.
