Monday 22nd February 2021. Maths home learning for Clee and Earls Hill Reception (Cygnets)

 

Today we are going to start our maths learning by singing some shapes songs:

 

Following on from the ‘Lost and Found’ story, I would like you to make a penguin using shapes. You can look around your house for shapes to use to make a penguin or you can draw and cut out shapes to use to make your penguin. Here are some examples for how you can make your penguin:

Talk to your grown up about the shapes you are using to make your penguin. Can you name them all? Is there a shape you are unsure of? If there is maybe your grown up can tell you what it is called.

Here is a link to a shape penguin which you can print out, cut out the shapes and stick to make a penguin:

I would love to see some photographs of your penguin and the shapes you used to make it.
