Learning from home is very new to us all but together we can do this. This is our opportunity to do something different & explore where it will take us. Learning from home means you are the DRIVER OF YOUR OWN LEARNING. Remember how we talked about this in class - now is your chance to put this into practice. Soon you will have new learning packs being sent to your home as well as learning activities from the school website/class page to work on. Before we get to that let's spend some time doing some fun challenges. Are you up for it?
Remember - STAY STRONG, BE KIND, STAY SAFE!
13/4 - 17/4: Week 1 Challenge:
1. Draw your family bubble with names or send a photo. Tell me about your Bubble.
2. Learn a dance & send me a photo/video
3. Make time in the evening to watch the news at 6pm with your family - share one thing that you understand from it.
Start each day with saying the karakia timatanga with your whanau
* Check out Ms Young's video on the school website homepage and try doing one of the physical activity games with your bubble members
We are also very lucky to have TV channels to help educate our children during the day Monday-Friday.
Home Learning | Papa Kāinga TV will be shown, free to air, on TVNZ channel 2+1 and on TVNZ on Demand, as well as on Sky Channel 502.
It will run from 9am to 3pm on school days with programming for children and young people aged 0 to 15, as well as for parents.
