Chat on the Mat Time
Let's start today's Chat on the Mat activity with a quiz, tell a grown up the answers.

1. Name 3 sea creatures.

2. I have 2 sharp claws called pincers. I walk sideways on sand. What am I?

3. What does a sea turtle start off as, in the nest?

4. What happens once the sea turtle eggs have hatched?

Super!   Now, let's play a rhyming game. Your challenge is to think of words that rhyme with 'under the sea' words, and write them in a list. We have done the first one for you, to show you what to do. 

Remember, rhyming words are words that sound the same.

  sand                    shell                    fish                    fin                    sea

 - hand                  -                           -                         -                        -

 - band                  -                           -                         -                        -

 - land                   -                           -                         -                        -

Fantastic rhyming! 

Maths Time
Let's start today's Maths activity by counting in 10's, all the way to 100.

10   20   30   40   50   60   70   80   90   100

Fantastic counting!   Today, we are going to practise your sharing skills, so switch your Maths brains on. Your going to share a given amount of caterpillars between two leaves. We have done the first one for you, to show you what to do. 

Look at the picture below, there are 4 caterpillars. So, we need to share the 4 caterpillars between the two leaves, like this:

Then, we count how many caterpillars are on each leaf. "1, 2"    "1, 2". This means half of 4 is 2. 

Now, its your turn. Remember, we say "one for you, one for you" and we share to make it fair!
Complete this activity in your busy books, by drawing the leaves and caterpillars.
