2 pages in the Word Doc:
Page 1: worksheet with speech bubbles (Picture of The Queen in the middle with speech bubbles surrounding her. Children write facts in speech bubbles).
Page 2: Union Jack bunting outline.
What toy/gift is that behind the present box? There is a small clue to help the children. Lots of oppotunities for 'why&' questions and for children to explain/justify their guess.
Hope you find it useful! :)

An activity to introduce children to the basics of addition and its written form with butterflies. Count the spots on the butterfly's wings and match it to the right flower. Children can write the sums down on the butterflies' bodies. If writing a number sentence proves too difficult, have students color in a block on the grid to correspond with the number of spots on the butterfly to demonstrate one-on-one correspondence.

Print the pages back to back (‘Duplex: short edge binding&’ on some printer settings) to make your own Colour Book. I made this book for my EAL children as they came in with knowing no colour names. The last few pages of the book allowed the children to draw or stick in objects of that particular colour.
I ended up having to print a book for my whole class as everyone wanted one.
They really liked the book and I hope your children will too :)
