Learning at home

Kia Ora,
Welcome to the place to go to find online lessons.

 I will be posting online tasks in the upcoming weeks. These will reflect our usual daily structure to keep some consistency. These will be a mixture of pictures, instructions, voice recordings and at times videos.

After a few conversations with parents I wanted to address some worries or concerns I have heard.

What not to do:
Stress
Worry
Try and replicate the entire school day


What to do:
Be patient!

Wash your hands

In Ruma Pukeko this week we learnt about the importance of washing our hands! We did several activities to illustrate this point.

Activity 1:





Activity 2:

Part 1: We put our hands in the bowl and they became covered in 'germs'.



Part 2 We washed our hands in the warm water with soap and the 'germs' didn't stick to us!



We then made some posters to show what we had learnt.
