Experiences in early childhood settings build on the range of experiences with language, literacy and numeracy that children have within their families and communities. Encouraging children’s positive attitudes and competencies in literacy and numeracy are essential for children’s successful learning. The foundations for these competencies are built in early childhood.
Numeracy education within an Early Years setting looks like: Conversations with peers and educators, sociodramatic play, dancing, creative arts, water play, gardening, puzzles, building, using technology, playdough and science experiments, just to name a few ways your child is developing their numeracy skills.
If you would like more information on our Numeracy program, please speak to your child’s Lead Educator.
