K2 mathematics
In the K2 year, children build a feel for numbers by counting real things, comparing small groups and noticing how numbers can be split and joined. They explore shapes, patterns, length and mass through play, and start sorting objects and talking about what they find. Short, hands-on sessions with everyday household items work best.
