Resources
Matchbox for each child
Introduction
Sit in a circle and practise counting in 4, 8, 50 and 100 (or whichever set of numbers is appropriate for your class)
Activity
Matchbox challenge: Give each child a matchbox. Give them 15 minutes to fill their matchbox with as many forest treasures as they can find e.g. leaf, feather, blade of grass. At the end of the game, ask children to count the objects in their matchbox. You can decide whether each item is worth 4, 8, 50 or 100 points. Children need to count the objects using the counting skills from the starter. The winner is the child with the most points!
