Practise counting and making amounts using a range of manipulatives with our EYFS Making and Comparing Amounts resource. The child is given an instruction, for example: Find an amount that is greater than this one and the supporting adult places a card in one of the circles. The child then chooses a card to place in the other circle. The adult encourages the child to talk about the different quantities and prompt appropriate language.
It covers the following objectives for children in reception:
(M-21) Count objects, actions and sounds.
(M-22) Subitise.
(M-25)Compare numbers.
Curriculum Objectives
- Verbally count beyond 20, recognising the pattern of the counting system
- Compare quantities up to 10 in different contexts, recognising when one quantity is greater than, less than or the same as the other quantity
- Explore and represent patterns within numbers up to 10, including evens and odds, double facts and how quantities can be distributed equally
