  • Integration of Themes:
  • A healthy environment: Many vehicles use our roads and these are a source of pollution. Discuss. Safety on the roads is essential. Learners must obey road rules and safety measures taken by the school and road authorities. Discuss how learners can be safe while walking / travelling to and from school.
  • Plants and flowers make our environment pretty and attractive. Learners must know these should be protected and not destroyed.
  • Inclusively: Man, animals and plants all rely on one another to survive. Discuss this statement and give examples.
  • Vehicles are essentially part of the learner’s experience and through these activities of counting to 150, a graph determining distances and vehicles, and the extension of bonds of 16, are used.
  • Up to 50 objects are estimated, grouped and counted.
  • The multiplication tables of 2 is introduced and addition and subtraction of 6, 7, 8 and 9 included.
  • Shapes are identified and sorted by colouring
