Lots of our learning in 'Mathematics' takes place during daily routines as well as during adult led activities and through our own self-initiated play. Adults use a lot of mathematical language within many contexts to aid chikdren's developing understanding of vocabulary related to number, size, shape, space, position and capacity.
