Lost and Found is a story about a penguin’s journey to the South pole and a journey back to find a friend. It is as much a story about a friendship as it is about a long journey across the sea.

Here are some ideas of how to make your own characters so you can have fun retelling the story each day this week.

Today your task will be to measure yourself against objects in your home or in the nursery. Here Mrs Jamois explains the difference between length and height.
Have fun searching.
See if you can find objects the same height as you.
Which objects are taller than you?
You could even make a chart to show which things are shorter taller or the same size.
English
It is time to go over our story and retell it with the toys and objects we can find in our homes or if you are at nursery you will be using what you can find there.
Click here to watch the video.
You have a go now at retelling the story in your own words using what you have made or found.
Send in videos of your stories. We would love to see your versions.

Making potions with Ms Balderson.
Click here to watch the video.
Collect some natural ingedients.
How much will you need of each?
Once you have made your potions arrange these in different containers.
Can you put them in height order starting from the shortest and ending with the tallest?
How can you put them in size order?
Some of the short containers are wider and hold more liquid.
How can you check this?
Most of all have lots of fun and send in pictures or videos of the potions you have been making.

Today Ms Livett will be teaching us about halving.
Click here to watch the video.
Now it is your turn to share objects out between two people or toys to divide a large quantity into two halves. For this task your objects all need to be the same size so you can make two equal halves.
You could pretend your pile of 12 bricks or blocks is a cake or a pizza that needs cutting into two halves.

Understanding the world
Ms Balderson has discovered something very exciting in her garden.
In our story of the week there is a bird that isn’t able to help the boy.
The bird in the story reminded us of the birds in Ms Balderson’s garden as they were also very very quiet.
Click here to watch the video.
Did the bird in the story not listen because it was too young?
An extra challenge is for you to look up where penguins live. There are several species of penguin.
