Carnival Fun Role Play Pack
Young children learn through play which is what makes this inviting role play pack the perfect addition to your classroom. It doubles as a fun role play centre as well as a terrific play-based maths experience for your students to practise their addition and subtraction skills. Also included is a range of differentiated addition and subtraction worksheets, designed to be used in conjunction with each carnival stall within the pack.
Use the printables to create your very own mini carnival within your classroom. Individual activity instructions are provided in the download. Allow students the opportunity for play before introducing any of the included worksheets.
