Celebrating World Maths Day in Your Setting

World Maths Day on the 23rd March is the perfect opportunity to look at maths through movement in your setting. Did you know that Startwell offers a ‘Music, Movement and Maths’ training which provides lots of great information and resources to use movement and music in helping to improve children’s mathematical development. We will advertise the date for our next Music, Movement and Maths training soon so keep an eye out for that! It will come up on the training dates page on our website.

Mathematical concepts can be found in settings everyday life – why not have different shaped or numbered sandwiches for tea or make patterns with your fruit at snack time. Link in Micky Me Size by talking about how different size bodies require different amounts of food. Why not go on a number hunt in the garden or use your cube as a colour or number finding activity. Check out Active Azra’s colour finding cube game on our website.

Keep an eye on our website for our new ‘Music, Movements and Maths’ section coming soon.
