Numeracy Skill at a nascent stage is an even stronger predictor of later school achievement than reading skills or the ability to pay attention. Numeracy is the ability to recognise and apply math concepts in all areas of life. As per NEP 2020, numeracy skill is a very important skill to be developed in children from an early age.
At our school, we had always tried our best to develop it through fun-filled interesting activities.
As we all know that, children start learning numeracy skills from the time the are born. This learning happens from watching and experiencing numeracy in action, especially in everyday play and activities. For example, it happens when a child hears you counting their fingers and toes, starts to recognise numbers and shapes on objects like clocks and phones or in books, decides how many slices of apple they want.
To enhance this further, our school provides a vibrant and engrossing environment to build this numeracy skill, for learning to happen in a congenial manner. Children love hearing voices and enjoy stories and songs with repetition, rhyme and numbers, hence many hands-on activities are conducted to develop this skill, such as- reading stories with numbers – for example, Goldilocks and the three bears, playing counting and sorting games, singing number songs and rhymes etc.
Every child is involved in the process of learning according to their level of interest and ability.
We help them develop logical thinking, problem-solving, sense of numbers, reading receipts, instructions and even play sports. Numeracy Skills are crucial for every child, as they are used in many aspects of our lives. “Mathematics may not teach us to add love or subtract hate, but it gives us hope that every problem has a solution”.
