Numeracy | Maths

This workshop provides hands-on experience for parents, teachers and au pairs as they play with smarties, paper plates, egg boxes etc. Concepts such as more than, less than, same, different, sorting, estimating etc are taught through play using items which children aged 3 to 8 will find exciting and interesting! By creating an awareness of the numbers around us, we provide the child with an excellent foundation to build upon. Counting becomes exciting because what I am counting is exciting! This workshop provides ideas and opportunities to experience concepts in the concrete which is the fundamental building block to learning! You will never look at a box of smarties in the same way again!
