Worksheet - I’ve attached both copies, a PDF & an editable Word document. Direction cards - I’ve used these in the woodlands as part of an outdoor learning activity. Children take it in turns to choose 5 instructions. They put sequence them and then tell their partner how to get to a treasure box/x marks the spot. Direction cards - I’ve used these for BlueBot/BeeBot activities. Children sequence direction cards and then give their friend instructions to move BlueBot.

Early Years - Writing Postcards - Queen

Queen’s Jubilee We were learning about money. We linked it to the Queen’s Jubilee. The children need to match the value of the stamp to the correct postcard. e.g. Miss West’s stamp is 19p. Can you find 19p? Can you make 10p using coins? How many ways can you make 19p? We used this in the provision whilst learning about the Jubilee. Then we wrote our own postcards about what we enjoyed during the Jubilee celebration.
