40-60+ months: Place Value and Counting Recognise some numerals of personal significance as appropriate, (i.e. age, door number etc.) Recognise, say and identify the numerals 1 to 5 and then to 10. Order the numbers 1 to 5 and then to 10. Count forwards and backwards within the number sequence 1 to 5 and then 1 to 10. Count up to 3 or 4 objects by saying one number name for each item and touching each object and saying one number name for each item. Know that the last number in the count gives the total. Know that numbers identify how many objects are in a set. Match and compare the numbers of objects in two sets, recognising when the sets contain the same number of objects. Recognise that the number of objects in a set does not change if they are moved around. Use ordinal numbers in different contexts. Count actions or objects which cannot be moved up to 10 by saying one number name for each item and touching each object and saying one number name for each item. objects which can be moved up to 10 by saying one number name for each item and touching each object and saying one number name for each item. Begin to count objects beyond 10 by saying one number name for each item and touching each object and saying one number name for each item. Count out up to 6 objects from a larger group. Select the correct numeral to represent 1 to 5 and then 1 to 10 objects, understanding that numeral always represents that quantity. Estimate how many objects and check by counting them, up to 10. Subitise to 6, familiar arrangement and match to the numeral, (i.e. dice, dominoes and five frames). Represent numbers up to 5 and then 10, using fingers. Understand the empty set (0) and use zero and the numeral to represent it.
