Hello Phase One, another maths, fun filled week ahead of us and this week we are exploring shapes and their properties. We will also be using positional language.

Try the games below and see if you can sort the shapes and repeat the patterns. Can you name them all? How many sides to they have? Do they have any sides? Can you prove this? Can you think of your own shape patterns? Can you spot any shapes at home?

We will also be looking using positional language this week, we will be focusing on ‘on, in, behind, in front of, next too and under’. Share this with your child and see if you can read out the clues and ask them to find where the animal is hiding. Take turns being the finder, can your child think of their own sentence using the words, on, under, in, next too?
