  25. Teacher notes: • This PowerPoint was made as part of a larger body of maths work based around the theme of supermarkets. This involved matching and sorting activities linked with stacking shelves and pricing, as well as shapes and product design, and bag packing in relation to weight. • The PowerPoint activity itself is a self-explanatory matching activity. The images contained within slides 26 and 27 can be printed out, stuck on card, laminated and either used as lotto game boards, cut out and used as the lotto cards, or used in another card game such as snap. In the game I used them for each player, including adults as role-models if appropriate, had a set of shape cards. The set of product cards was turned face down and each player took turns to shuffle them, choose one to match, and show the other players so that they could match with it as well from their shape cards, before passing them to the next player. This gives the students another way of accessing and achieving the shape to product matching objective, but also extends the number of objectives which can be met through this resource. It also has the added benefit of introducing a random element to the activity missing from the PowerPoint exercise. • Objectives: • To identify geometric shapes • To match geometric shapes with the shapes of supermarket products • To take turns with equipment • To show chosen card to the group so they can match with it (peer awareness) • To learn to shuffle the cards and tolerate the random result • Happy teaching, • Nick Wonham
