Recapping numbers 9 and 10 and drawing objects.

 

 

This week we are learning about the numbers 9 and 10.

I wonder if you can recognise them?

 

Work through the ‘can you recognise the number 1-10’ video below and say the name of the number that you see.

It would be even better if you could show that number of your fingers too for each number!

 

For the main activity you will need some pieces of paper and a pen or pencil/drawing tools. Remember to pick something easy to draw like lollipops, or circles, or triangles, and draw them in a straight line.

Here is an example:

 

 

If you are running your own lesson using the powerpoint below, after the picture (showing the drawing of simple objects) say the number shown and draw the correct number of objects for that number.
