monkeys jumping on a bed’ and ‘5 little ducks went swimming one day’

together. Ask your child to count how many are left after each

verse. Can they show you on their fingers what 3 looks like? How

about 5?

Today we are looking at 2d shapes. We will be learning about circles,

squares, rectangles and triangles.

This week we are looking at environmental sounds. What sounds can

you hear all around you? A kettle boiling, washing machine spinning,

Make a note of these sounds on the worksheets.

found them ask your child to sort them into the correct shape pile. Let

them explore the shapes and see what is different and what is the same.

soft/ quiet sound?
