NOTE ON PICTURES: This shouldn't be necessary but I have, sadly, noticed growing cases. Please DO NOT link directly to pictures on this website - it steals my bandwidth and is BAD! I CAN trace you if you do and I will take action.

Scrapbooks and snowman maths
I made myself a little scrapbook by taking some thick card and some ordinary printer paper and then sewing them together into a book. I'm going to use it as a 2010 memory book. Anyway, April decided she wanted one to "stick allsorts in" so I made her one and she decorated the cover. The first things she stuck in were some life cycle printouts she got from one of her Learning Land cd's (pretty old, I used to use them with Rosie years ago! Look them up on Ebay - VERY good for 4-7 year olds! These lifecycle pictures were from disc 5, "Tim's Got a Cold" in case you want to know!)
I also made her a snowman maths game for practicing adding and subtracting numbers to 5. The snowman heads I got from Childcare Land but the rest I made myself - I put little pockets each side of the snowman to hold the cards in :)
I've also added 3 Cuisenaire rod worksheets to my Box account (see left sidebar) - these are basic "introducing the rods" type worksheets. On one you have to put rods on the blank "rods" on the sheet, write in what it's worth and colour. Another sheet has a rod stair to build and colour and the last has some number cards for 1-10 to print and place by the rods when they've been put in order. I think that the sheets must be printed in A4 size so that the rods in the pictures measure right - I'm not sure if they'll work properly if printed any other size - let me know if they do! :)
