Each aspect is made up from one or more of the example planning documents that are in 'Problem Solving, Reasoning and Numeracy/ Planning'. They are organised here into 'Aspects' to support progression through to Key Stage 1. Each planning document is divided into the following sections:

What we want the children to learn (Development Matters)

Related Early Learning Goals (Showing the interdependency of all 6 areas of learning)

Possible contexts (Contexts for the learning to take place)

Example of adult-led activities (This gives an example learning context with ideas for the role of the adult)

Opportunities for children to explore and apply (This gives learning contexts for children's spontaneous play and ideas for the role of the adult)

Look, listen and note (Examples to support observation to aid planning for next steps)

Assessment opportunities (Examples to support observation for assessment)

Related Scale Points (Foundation Stage profile scale points that these learning contexts might support)
