Counting and Measuring with Lego<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

For a simple activity use 20 or more lego duplo blocks in various colours and write the numbers 0-20+ on the sides of them, using a permanent marker. On the opposite side of each draw the corresponding number of dots so that they can be counted to match the correct amount. Lay them out on the floor with the numbers showing and set the challenge to build them into a tall tower in the right order. L.1. I have explored numbers, understanding that they represent quantities, and I can use them to count, create sequences and describe order.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rhyming Pairs Game<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Make a simple rhyming activity to help practise rhyming pairs and learn about literacy in a\u00a0playful, hands-on way<\/a>! L.1. I explore sounds, letters and words, discovering how they work together, and I can use what I learn to help me as I read and write.<\/span><\/p>\n

Practise hearing and identifying rhyming words for example, making a collection of rhyming words that all belong in the \u201c-at\u201d family, such as \u201ccat\u201d, \u201cmat\u201d, \u201cbat\u201d, \u201csat\u201d, \u201cfat\u201d etc.<\/p>\n

This makes learning more concrete and playful. Children learn best while touching, moving and doing, rather than looking at a worksheet or set of 2D images.<\/em><\/p>\n

Playmobile figures or small world toys are ideal for this game. Some suggestions for rhyming words;<\/p>\n

goat and boat<\/p>\n

man and fan<\/p>\n

chair and bear<\/p>\n

snake and cake<\/p>\n

cat and hat<\/p>\n

duck and truck<\/p>\n

fox and box<\/p>\n

mouse and house<\/p>\n

car and star<\/p>\n

dog and frog<\/p>\n
