Good Morning, Nursery.
Well done for all of your hard work in Maths yesterday.
Today, we are going to be focussing on shapes.
Look at the photos of shapes in the environment. Which shapes can you see?
Go on a shape hunt around your home and find as many shapes as you can.
Can you talk about the shapes that you have found?
What are the shapes called?
Which shape did you find the most?
Were there any shapes that you couldn’t find at all?
I am looking forward to hearing how you got on.
Love from Miss Siswick.
