The Witches' Spell - Counting Strategies
Based on The Witches Spell by Shakespeare, this is an engaging and fun lesson designed to help children develop and describe strategies to count objects up to 100.
It requires children to count the contents of cauldron, and encourages the use of estimation, multiplication and a range of mathematical strategies. A variety of teaching methods are employed, so that the children have the opportunity to explore and learn in the ways that best suit them.
A simple to use lesson plan, complete with aims and success criteria relating to the National Curriculum and EYFS, it should be easy to pick up and teach with minimum hassle and organisation. A specially prepared presentation and worksheet are included here and are ready for use, but can be adapted easily for your own children. If you would like any further adaptions, please contact me, emma@emblabee.org for more information.
I’d be grateful if you like my resources here to add review and rate them. Thanks!
