Nursery Maths: Block 10: Move and Label 1, 2, 3
Nursery maths lesson pack: Move and label 1, 2 and 3 | Block 10
Support early counting and number recognition with this nursery maths lesson pack on moving and labelling 1, 2 and 3, aligned with the EYFS maths framework and White Rose progression. Part of Block 10, this unit helps the children link number words to actions, fingers and numerals through practical, play-based learning.
Across the six small steps, the children explore counting through movement, songs and stories, developing confidence in matching number words to actions and quantities. They practise moving fingers to represent numbers, counting small sets of objects and recognising numerals as labels.
Through structured activities and clear modelling, the children begin to connect spoken number names with quantities and symbols, supporting early number recognition and understanding of numbers to 3.
