B5 - supporting numeracy development
How adults support childrens early experiences of numeracy:
- commentary - talk about what theyre doing, while theyre doing it
- questioning - helps them think about the task in different ways and extend their learning, and make thme think logically, ask questions before after and during an activity
- repetition - going over things again and again is important as they need continous opportunities to practice what theyve learnt
- praise - excellent motivator and provides a confidence boost, verbal or rewards or stickers

- usually delivered through discussion and practical activities
- should be brought into a childs routine and should be spoken about i.e. 'how many children are here today'
- mathematical language should be used as much as possible
The process of supporting children to link concepts to experience and why this is important:
- pointing numbers out on tills or recipts or even number plates - they become aware of numbers all around them
- making purchases - links to experience and helps it become reality rather than just a subject, they will feel confident as they have already experienced it
- counting out loud - vocalise their thoughts so it makes more sense to them

- ordering numbers on a washing line
- playing board games
- water and sand games to explore capacity
- design and make patterns with pegs counters etc
- using timers when tidying away
- keeping track…
