Maths has often been an area in which we have needed to develop
further - this book did this, for example, shape cutting when
sandwich making, taking photos of children's fingers counting
(rather than objects). Lots of ideas to use throughout the rooms.
Really visual, easy read for staff.

An engaging and well structured book which has been pitched
perfectly for an early years teacher. The visual nature of the
different chapters allows practitioners to dip in and out. There is
a plethora of varied activities permitting teachers to formulate
plans, or simply give children different opportunities to play and
explore.
