Intended learning Recourses:
Children will be able to - Housey housey sheet * Discuss the different types of homes, Seven sheets of A4 card * Identify the type of homes they live in, * Discuss the positive aspect of each home, such as having neighbours close by and not having to go up stairs to bed, * The first child picks up a card and tries to match the home to their game card. * The first child to cover all their six homes is the winner.
