We have been looking at odd and even numbers. Also, we have recently read the story ‘Aliens love underpants’ (which the children loved!) So we merged the two together! the challenge was the children were split into 2 groups and when their number was called they had to run and find the next pair of pants to go on the number line depending on whether it was an odd or even number! We had soooo much fun! 🙂
