Ok so ordinarily yeah I could probably work this out but I feel some of the below items could fall under two/three main categories so I am a bit....:blush:

Which learning aspect would you put the below under: I have done an estimated guess:

- Alphabet bus etc - CLL
- Mr Potato Head - MAT
- Farm set - UW
- Thomas train track etc - UW

Can someone please guide me. It's awful I know that I should know this by now :(

If you had a puzzle which was a giant alphabet floor one - would you be listing it under the MAT section for the shapes/sizes or would you be placing it under the CLL section for it's alphabet benefits?

It would depend on the ages of the child and what they are getting out of the activity/resource

Alphabet bus for older children could be CLL & UW - Technology but for younger children probably more physical

Potato head - physical

Farm set - UW, Physical and if they invented a little story then CLL

I generally find I can tick most aspects for every activity we do apart from Literacy which is more specific.
