Chickens to the rescue:

What things don’t you want to do for each section of the day and need loose chickens to help you survive the day.

Problem Solving- How can you set this up so that you can see the sequence of events? Give the children 4 small pieces of paper for them to draw 4 different activities. Then have them sequence them in the correct order.

Extending- Add times e.g. o’clock times digital or analogue.

Enabling- Only three events.
