Tuesday
Literacy Make a thank you card for a doctor or a nurse. You can decorate the front with a rainbow or maybe a rosette. Inside your card give a reason why you are saying thank you.

Use your ten frames to help you with this week's maths. You may be able to do the sum in your head but learn how to use ten frames please. It helps you learn to recognise and count in tens and then to count on.
