This included some lovely shape dinosaurs from the P1&#8217;s and I heard they all did a very good job talking about their dinosaurs and identifying and counting the different shapes in each others. P2 made lovely rainbow clouds showing off their number bonds to 10 and finally, P3\/4 made some tasty looking fraction pizzas! As you can see from the photos &#8211; the results were fabulous and everyone was very hard at work!<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-4136 gallery-columns-3
