Mathematical Development –

– Recite numbers up to 100, forwards and backwards and from different starting points

– forwards (bridging the decade) e.g. 48, 49, 50, 51, 52

– backwards (within the decade)  e.g. 68, 67, 66, 65

Consolidate counting forwards and backwards in 10s to 100 and in 5s to at least 20

e.g. 8-3 using fingers to keep track of the count
