Aim: This webinar will provide you with practical guidance and advice on using language and communication skills to help develop children’s understanding of measurements across all areas of maths in the early years in line with EYFS requirements and recommended best practice.

Rationale: The ‘Early years foundation stage statutory framework’ states that it’s important that the mathematics curriculum includes rich opportunities for children to develop their spatial reasoning skills across all areas of mathematics, including shape, space and measures. An early understanding of measures helps to nurture critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and supports mathematical development.
