DEVELOPING CONCEPT OF MATH IN
EARLY CHILDHOOD
-a brief discussion ......

INTRODUCTION TO THE MATH CONCEPT
 Early childhood is the most important stage of learning.
 Many innovative early childhood programs are developed to build numeracy
skill among the children (Lindgren, Tscholl, Wang & Johnson, 2016).
 Educators help children to grow interest on learning through some exciting
methods (Bierman & Torres, 2016).
 This presentation focuses on EYLF learning concept of math for the age group
of 0-5 years.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONCEPT
 EYLF stands for Early Years Learning Framework.
 This framework helps in putting children’s learning at the core.
 It comprises of three inter-related elements and they are principles, practice
and learning outcomes (Black et al., 2017).
 It is one of the most valuable ways an educator can support a child in
developing numeracy skill (Vogt, Hauser, Stebler, Rechsteiner & Urech, 2018).
