Guest Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Hi all, Hope everyone had a lovely summer... For this half term our umberella topic is Ourselves/ All about me. Can anyone share some exciting ideas? How did you enhance all the different areas and what table top activities did you use? There is a real issue with resources and money in my school so we are trying to do everything on a budget. Thank you for your help Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
