Term 2- Week 3

Over the next few weeks, you will be working from home, please include your family and do the activities together if you are able. I know that your family are busy people, but working together in your bubble is a good way to keep connected  - perhaps you can include elder family members too - a phone call to an aunt or a grandparent to share what you are learning could even surprise you with what your family already know! 

Our new learning context is Wai and Kai not. Can you guess what this might be about?  Wai is Māori for water and Kai is food - so how do these words go together?  What might the not mean?  

We are going to start investigating the consumer world and its impact on us, on our whanau, in our country and on our world. 

Our goal will be to discover how we can be better consumers so we limit our impact on the environment. 

This week we will look at needs and wants through different activities including drawing and playing cards. Have your needs and wants changed over the past 4 weeks?
