Challenge your most-able pupils with our Year 2 Describe Movement and Turns Discussion Problem. Children will complete a multi-step problem by following directions. They will then complete the open-ended task of finding different routes to pick up all the toys. The various possible answers of this question allow children to sink their teeth in and explore different turns and movements.

You could use this as an extension at the end of your lesson, or even as an intervention. It is perfect for pairs and groups to complete!


Curriculum Objectives
