Today, Crew Frost continued their Easter-themed learning—with a mathematical twist! This week, we have been focusing on number recognition and touch counting as part of our early maths development.
The children were encouraged to count out the correct number of rabbits for each hutch. This supported their understanding of matching quantity to number, which is a key aspect of the EYFS Maths area of learning.
During the activity, the children worked both collaboratively and independently, developing their confidence as well as their communication and language skills. We also saw lots of perseverance and problem-solving as they checked and corrected their counting.
Using their “pinchy fingers” to pick up the rabbits helped to strengthen their fine motor skills, supporting Physical Development—an important foundation for later writing.
Furthermore, as the children develop positive attitudes towards maths through play this makes us so proud as a Crew. Well done, Crew Frost—we are so proud of the fantastic learning we are seeing and can’t wait to watch your confidence in maths continue to grow!
