At Parkfield a couple of minutes of every maths lesson is spent counting. Children practice and consolidate number facts they've been taught in a variety of interactive and engaging ways. The content covered each year is detailed below.

Count within 0 to 20 forwards and backwards from any number - understanding that 0 represents the value of an empty set and the number that is before one in the counting sequence
Count to at least 50 from 1 or 0 forwards and backwards (ensure that there is increased emphasis on the ability to count backwards)
Count to 100 from 1 or 0 forwards and backwards (ensure that there is increased emphasis on the ability to count backwards)
Count to 100 from any number forwards and backwards (ensure that there is increased emphasis on the ability to count backwards)
Count across 100 forwards and backwards to develop familiarity with the patterning of the number system (there is no need to go beyond 130 as this exemplifies the pattern adequately)
