Why this why now

This unit builds on position, direction and spatial reasoning work in the Early Years. The learning is developed to include the ideas of turns that are a fraction of a whole to describe position and movement.

Prior knowledge requirements

  • Use directional language (left, right, turn)
  • Recognise quarter, half and full turns
  • Represent turns using fractions
