We used stones to create faces and talked about the different emotions. We created stories for the faces and what might have happened to make them feel that way.

We did some sequencing. I made a pattern using leaves and stones and asked Betty to continue it. Then Betty used leaves and stones to create patterns of her own which I then continued. We counted up the leaves and stones to practise counting. We put the leaves and stones in order of size, talking about which was the biggest, bigger, smaller and smallest.
