This is evident, for example, when children:

◾use symbols in play to represent and make meaning
◾begin to make connections between, and see patterns in, their feelings, ideas, words and actions, and those of others
◾notice and predict the patterns of regular routines and the passing of time
◾develop an understanding that symbols are a powerful means of communication and that ideas, thoughts and concepts can be represented through them
◾begin to be aware of the relationships between oral, written and visual representations
◾begin to recognise patterns and relationships and the connections between them
◾begin to sort, categorise, order and compare collections and events and attributes of objects and materials in their social and natural worlds
◾listen and respond to sounds and patterns in speech, stories and rhyme
◾draw on memory of a sequence to complete a task
◾draw on their experiences in constructing meaning using symbols
