MEYE CURRICULUM
A deep analysis with proposals of improvement have been done in both, the mathematical curriculum of Early Years Education and the mathematical curriculum of VET Childhood educators in Slovenia, Portugal and Spain.
Therefore, the product has two parts, one related with the curriculum of Early Childood education and a second one focused on the curriculum of VET educators.
Part one starts with an article published in the MPDI Journal «Mathematics» Comparing Mathematics Early Years Education where the curriculums of the three countries are analysed and compared.
After comparing, there is a proposal of curricular design

MEYE GUIDE
MEYE GUIDE is the last and the most important product of this project and is the result of the pilot activities done with Early Years children in the participant countries. The methodology to create this guide has been based on a series of research-action activities where proposals were suggested and put into practice with the target group (children in nursery schools/kindergartens). After each pilot activity the proposals were reviewed and remade according to the results obtained, testing them again in the following international activity. The result is a product that allows a deep approach of all the ways to deal with mathematics at this stage.
The guide has an introduction that sets the framework to be used, and a wide range of proposals of activities divided into stages according to what has been established in the Curricular Design
MEYE TRAINING
A training program about mathematics and its didactics has beeen designed. It is aimed to professionals of Early Years Education and also to teachers and students of VET in Early Years Education in order to learn the basic notions about mathematics for 0-6-year-olds. This course has two modalities: face-to-face and online. MEYE TRAINING allows participants to receive basic knowledge about mathematics in this stage and it is the starting point to later use the other product of the project “MEYE GUIDE”.
The course is part of the training offer provided by CEFIRE in Valencia, Spain. And is also available in open access here. Languages: Catalonian, English, Portuguese, Slovenian and Spanish.
