WRM - Reception Guidance

If you were to ask anyone in the White Rose Maths team what the most common request from teachers has been over the past few years, there is no doubt they would reply with the following question,
‘When are you releasing something for Reception?’
Drawing together a team of EYFS specialists and teachers, we are excited to release our brand new Reception Schemes which we hope will support Reception practitioners within their own settings.

Taking the end of year Early Learning Goals into account, we have created a progression to support teachers in building up the key small steps in learning throughout the year. When working with Reception teachers, our team found that teachers wanted clearer guidance in what they needed to cover within the year. Our progression helps support the coverage whilst still providing flexibility with how long you spend on different topics depending on your classes’ needs.

The progression is then broken down into small steps which give more detailed guidance on how to approach adult-led teaching of concepts, and how to enhance your provision areas to support teaching. Within the small steps, we have focused on key questions to support all adults within the setting to unpick children’s understanding and to enable them to move forward with their learning. The suggestions for learning could be used for short adult-led inputs or group activities with the children.

We hope you find the guidance useful #MathsEveryoneCan
