    Literacy refers to reading and writing skills, while numeracy involves understanding basic math concepts. Both literacy and numeracy are essential skills for daily life and most jobs. Teachers can help develop students' literacy and numeracy skills by establishing a supportive classroom culture, explicitly teaching skills, providing engaging reading materials, conferring with students individually, discussing books, and having students write about what they read. Effective numeracy and literacy teaching strategies include emphasizing connections between concepts, encouraging strategy sharing, making mathematics explicit, raising challenges, promoting mathematical language, and having students reflect on their learning.

    Literacy is defined as the ability to read and write, whereas numeracy

    refers to the ability to understand simple math concepts. Both are


    essential skills needed in day-to-day life and are considered basic
    employability skills for most workplaces

    What is the importance of numeracy and literacy?


    Literacy and numeracy skills are the foundations of lifelong learning and full participation
    in society. These skills empower students to make meaning, think critically and
    creatively, and reach their full potential. Throughout the grades, literacy and numeracy
    are applied across all areas of learning.

    What is literacy and numeracy in teaching?


    Literacy helps students apply reading, writing, speaking and listening skills across a
    variety of subject areas.” Numeracy is “the ability to understand and apply mathematical
    concepts, processes, and skills to solve problems and make decisions in a variety of
    situations, including real-life scenarios.”
    Surreyschoolslearningbydesign

    This includes building skills like summarising, predicting, making inferences, and
    analysing textual information. Vocabulary Development: The objective of foundational
    literacy and numeracy is to grow students' vocabulary and assist them in obtaining a
    range of words and their meanings

    Everyday activities like counting, looking at shapes, and talking about sizes can help
    children develop early numeracy and maths skills. You can build children's numeracy
    and maths skills through play. Try singing number songs and sorting toys together.
