Exploring Position and Routes Nursery Maths Lesson Pack
Support your nursery pupils to understand simple positional language with this exploring position and routes nursery maths lesson pack, part of our White Rose aligned Spring Term scheme. Children learn to use words like under, over, between, and through, through movement, stories and small-world play.
Each block is designed to be taught over two weeks, averaging three lessons a week to ensure coverage across the year. However, we know every setting is unique – you may choose to teach more one week and less the next. We do recommend teaching the lessons in sequence where possible.
