Life Education

Last week we were lucky to have Mrs Henderson online with us. She focused on Health and PE lessons relating to our feelings and about being in lockdown. We had to do a variety of activities. Share what we can do when we are feeling sad, lonely, angry. Create a traffic light kebab. Share what we would do if we had the superpower of kindness. Create a wishing jar of things that we would like to do when lockdown is over. Get outside and do some exercise and record our pulse.
  Here is a sample of some of the activities that they completed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Te Reo Maori

Last week Mrs Clarke set a challenge to choose a phrase from the Kupu o te ra slide to learn and use at our whare.  We had to video ourselves using the phrase. Here are some of our awesome videos.

Here is the slide we learnt from:

Some of the children's videos:

Happy Mother's Day - Garden to Table

Over Level 4 and Level 3 of lockdown for Covid-19 the children in Team Awa have been doing Garden to Table from their own kitchen and gardens. Aimee put together this fabulous video to say thank you and Happy Mother's Day.

Crystals with Miss Fletcher

For Science we learnt about crystals. We got to make crystals using sugar and warm water. We had to dissolve the sugar in the water until it wouldn't dissolve anymore. Then we had to shape a pipe cleaner and put it in the jar for the crystals to grow on.

Science DNA Monsters

Team Awa created DNA monsters by rolling a dice to see if their monsters would inherit a dominant or recessive trait.  Isn't it amazing how many different looking monsters we created using 10 different traits!?  DNA truly is a fascinating molecule!
