Autumn

Hi everyone, has anyone got any interesting ideas for maths activities based on our Autumn theme. We have thought of the usual sorting and counting conkers, acorns, leaves etc and weighing natural resources but are looking for something a bit different, fun and very hands on especially for those children that are new to the setting and still finding it difficult to join in with adult led activities. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Whilst on the topic fresh ideas for the other 5 areas of learning would also be appreciated. Many thanks.

I have lots of display boards in my room and need to get things on them fairly quickly! I want to put a colours display up in my making area corner. I was thinking of different coloured 'splodges' made by the children in different ways. So far I've come up with: - hand prints - tea bag splats - tyre track prints Has anyone got any other ideas? My current class know all their basic colours so I'll add a few more 'interesting' colour words and was thinking of photos of different colour things too.

Mine would be the mud pit...and den making
