All these resources link to the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework.<br></br> <br></br> <br></br> Each of them has:<br></br> <br></br> • suggestions of rich contexts for exploring mathematical ideas and developing mathematical skills and concepts<br></br> • details of linked mathematics learning goals<br></br> • descriptions of the mathematical journey that the learners may take through the task<br></br> • suggestions for prompts and questions to elicit mathematical responses from the children.<br></br> <br></br> Each resource starts with an activity that children enjoy and suggests how, as adults, we might work with the children to maximize its mathematical potential.<br></br> <br></br> In addition to the mathematical opportunities we offer, you may like to make your own, rich connections to other learning goals from other areas of learning that these resources can facilitate.<br></br></mdoxml> 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 Explaining what these EYFS activities hope to achieve Site Structural trending Site Structural TrendEarlyYearsTeacher
