Counting Progression - Doing it daily counts!
This serves to guide teachers to count daily with their classes to improve fluency and as a basis for number work.
Counting is a child’s first experience of Maths at an early age and this document highlights how you can keep counting right through the National Curriculum in all domains to help children retain many number facts and use for calculation.
It may stand alone outside of and within a maths lesson and should support the main teaching. It is important to also work with children to understand the concept through explicit modelling using concrete resources where possible.
The 'Daily Count' slides are intended to support collaborative or group counting.
Teachers should adapt to suit the needs of their learners, including further examples or different images.
Teachers may wish to record a voice-over so that pupils can hear the sound of each number.
