For number time today I want your Robin to get outside! Whether it is in the garden or a walk. Whether it is sunny or raining. Let’s do adding outside.

The first task is to go and collect sticks and then create a number line with these. Whether it be the amount of sticks going up like the picture below or the numerals made out of sticks like the other picture. Give it a go and add some questions in like - What is one more than?

Your then going to stay outside and collect a basket of woodland bits which can be used for adding. It can be anything from dry leaves to sticks to acorns to pine cones - you choose!

Then find a spot to do some adding. Put three leaves one side and then make an adding sign with sticks and add three sticks. What is the total? Take a look below - you can always use my examples if you get stuck!
