EYFS Observations

 

EYFS Learning and Development Area:

 

Mathematics: Shape, Space and Measure
Early Learning Goals: Use the words ‘circle’ ‘bigger’ ‘smaller’ to describe shapes and everyday language to describe their positions ‘top’ ‘middle’ ‘bottom’ etc.

What to look for on this project:

 

16-26 months How do the young children attempt to fit the 3 circles together on the paper?
22-36 months Can the children find which circle is bigger and which is smaller? Can they order the circles by size?
30-50 months Can the children use the word ‘circle’ correctly?  Can they order the circles by size?
40-60 months Can the children use words like ‘bigger’ or ‘smaller’ correctly?  Can they order the three circles correctly on the paper by size?
