You could produce a table or chart to show this. You must include all areas of mathematics
including number, pattern, matching and sorting, shape and space, measuring, problem solving,
time, estimating and mathematical language. Minimum 500 words
2. Explain the different factors that can affect children's learning of mathematical concepts.
GUIDANCE
Consider the following points in your answer - Prior knowledge and understanding, context,
resources available, access to practical experiences, level of language development, supportive
adults, breadth of knowledge and working with peers. The analysis should be a minimum of 800
words.
3. Explain how working with colleagues and parents/carers supports children's emergent
mathematical development.
GUIDANCE
Provide a written explanation which is a minimum of 500 words. How do you work with
colleagues and parent/carers to support emergent mathematical development in your setting?
6. Analyse the different reasons for valuing individual interests when supporting children's
emergent mathematical development.
GUIDANCE
In your own words research and give an analysis the man reasons. Include how you do this in
your setting min 400 words.
7. Explain how you can provide opportunities for sustained shared thinking to support
emergent mathematical development.
GUIDANCE

Did you plan for the right age group and group size?
During the activity - How did you introduce the activity?
How did you ensure the activity was enjoyable for the children?
Did the activity focus on the emergent mathematical skills that you planned for?
After that activity - Did you record the learning of individual children?
Did you feedback to others?
Min 250 words.
