Mathematics can sometimes feel challenging for young learners but it doesn't have to be! In EYFS at Braeside Thika, play based learning is a powerful way to introduce mathematics concepts in a fun and engaging manner. Through games, children develop number recognition, counting skills, problem - solving abilities, and logical thinking. Their social skills are also enhanced as they work in groups.
By turning maths into adventure, children build confidence with numbers in a stress free environment and develop a love for learning that will benefit them throughout their education .
In FS1 class, children engaged in a dice game where they rolled dice, counted the dots, and matched them to number flash cards. This hands-on approach strengthened their number recognition, counting skills and confidence in maths. What a fun and exciting way to learn numbers!
