In our ToyShop, throughout the play-room and outdoors we have been sorting and grouping toys and objects.

We discussed the features of our toys/objects and sorted by colour, shape, size. We spoke about what made toys work; batteries, electricity or something different – wind up toys.

We have been exploring money and have now introduced this as part of our snack routine. We know money is used to buy goods, we can recognise some coins and we can use money language such as; cost, how much?, more, change.

Ella-Rose explains “you know it is a 5 ’cause it is the wee shiney one.”

We have been learning to count out objects and spot missing numbers in a sequence.

We used number rhymes to help us match, recognise and form numbers.
