I can test different materials and make a decision umbrella investigation. Can you make an umbrella for teddy? Building, naming and labelling numbers 20-30 with number rods. I can test different materials and make a decision umbrella investigation. Can you make an umbrella for teddy? changed to 32. Talk about what is different. Recognising, saying and writing 2 digit numbers make 2 digit numbers with numicon shapes and write them emphasise the importance of tens e.g. 3 tens make 30 so 3 ten shapes and a 2 shape would equal 32. Use the numicon 10s number line and the 0-100 number line have cards 20-100 shuffled and placed face down. Turn over a card and read the number. Mark the number on number lines. Compare the size of 2 collections use the balance scales and show comparison by using the < and > symbols.

Games Music (PPA alternate every week so that Working in pairs, the ch set up an area for their game with tape for the halfway line and 2 hoops positioned on one side of the line as targets. The pupils stand on either side of the line, one as an attacker and the other as a defender. The attacker aims to throw a beanbag into one of the hoops, moving around the area and throwing when they think they have dodged their opponent. The defender tries to stop the beanbag landing in the hoop. The attacker scores 2 points for each beanbag that lands in the hoop. After 5 throws, the defender becomes the attacker and tries to beat their opponent s score.

Piggy in the Middle Ch must try to score as many points as possible by throwing and catching a ball or beanbag between players on their team. They must work in groups of 4 with 1 defender and 3 attackers. The attackers pass the ball or beanbag between them the person with the ball must stand still but the others can move around. The defender tries to intercept the ball or beanbag without touching any of the attackers. The attackers score one point for each pass they make. If they drop the beanbag or ball they must start counting again. The aim of the game is to score as many points as possible in one go. Each team plays for 5 minutes before swapping roles. This core task can be easily adapted to striking or stopping a ball using a bat, racket or stick, or to kicking and stopping a ball using the feet.
