Learning through play

Learning Opportunities

Children can use the signs to explore number recognition, counting, quantities, money, prices and simple calculations while engaging in imaginative play. Educators can extend learning by introducing pretend coins, shopping baskets, shopping lists, cash registers and loose-parts food.

The bilingual text also encourages conversations about language, culture and the different ways families communicate, while supporting children who speak Mandarin to see their home language represented within the learning environment.

EYLF V2.0 Connections

Outcome 2 – Children are connected with and contribute to their world
Dramatic play based on familiar community experiences helps children explore roles, relationships and everyday experiences while recognising linguistic and cultural diversity.

Outcome 4 – Children are confident and involved learners
Children use mathematical thinking as they count items, compare prices, recognise numerals, solve problems and experiment with money and quantities through meaningful play.

Outcome 5 – Children are effective communicators
English and Mandarin print supports children's understanding that symbols, numbers and written languages carry meaning. Shopping play also encourages conversation, negotiation, questioning and early literacy.
