“Mathematics could be like roller-skating, but usually it’s like being told to stop roller-skating and come in and tidy your room.” – Richard Winter (2009)
Do you want to be joyful, creative and playful with Early Maths?
Do you want to grow your confidence in being a playful partner with children as they explore their world through mathematical noticing, mathematical talk, and mathematical thinking?
Come and join Dr Helen Williams and our expert panel in a dynamic conversation about how to create a playful, maths-rich pedagogy and provision. A provision that is open, active, and flexible—full of challenging tasks and interesting maths tools—allows children to develop their own playful inquiry and understanding of mathematical concepts.
Helen will discuss the research evidenced in her book “Playful Mathematics” and inspire us to rethink mathematics, explore how children learn best, and learn how adults can best support children’s mathematical learning.
