Mathematics

Mathematics involves providing children with opportunities to develop and improve their skills in counting, understanding and using numbers, calculating including simple addition and subtraction problems; and to describe shapes, spaces and measures.

At Kids Kingdom, we provide opportunities for children to use mathematics through their play and real first-hand experiences, as well as playing ‘math games’. Mathematics is in every day experiences, from measuring ingredients when cooking, to working out how tall to build a tower of blocks and filling a plant pot with compost.

What you can do to help your child:

  • Use as many opportunities as possible to count with your child ‐stairs, fruit, buttons.
  • Look for numbers around you e.g. house numbers, bus numbers, telephone numbers
  • Cook with your child as this involves lots of counting and measuring
  • Calculate in everyday activities – laying the table for dinner is always a good opportunity for working out how many more we need.
  • Look for shapes around the home and as you walk around the local area.
  • Talk about the number of edges and corners and use the proper names for shapes.
  • Sing counting songs and rhymes together.
