How to use this resource
These fun mats can be laminated and used to match the animals of the students choosing to go and live in the trees.
As laminated sheets students can use them to put matching playdough apples etc in the trees, trace over the letters and match counters or playdough in the ten frames provided.
With larger numbers, students can use these as a dice game and see who can fill their tree first with the exact number shown on the mat. If you are looking at the number 8 and the child throws a 2, then they know they will need to throw a 6 or any combination that adds to 6 to complete their tree. If they throw a number that is too big, then they miss a turn.
These mats can be used as part of group rotations with students filling all sets of cards as an activity.
Suitable for pre-school or early kindergarten students.

Sensory details include sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste.
Writers employ the five senses to engage a reader’s interest. If you want your writing to jump off the page, then bring your reader into the world you are creating.
When describing a past event, try and remember what you saw, heard, touched, smelled, and tasted, then incorporate that into your writing.
Sensory details are used in any great story, literary or not. Think about your favourite movie or video game. What types of sounds and images are used?
What do your favourite characters taste, smell, and touch?
Without sensory details, stories would fail to come to life.
When sensory details are used, your readers can personally experience whatever you’re trying to describe, reminding them of their own experiences, giving your writing a universal feel. A universal quality is conveyed when the writer can personally connect with the readers.
Another note about sensory details: there is no one sense that’s more important than another. It all depends on the scene you’re trying to create.
However, imagery, the sight sense, is a common feature in vivid writing.
