Day 13 – Make Leaves Count
Good morning everyone, what a beautiful day! Today we’re looking at some numeracy skills outside using leaves as a fun resource to help us. Now that the seasons have officially turned and we are past the equinox, you will probably notice a lot more leaves on the ground and can admire the amazing range of colours too. Why not make a palette and count how many shades of each colour that you can find? Remember to send us some pictures!
