Home Learning Ideas



Kia ora koutou, 
I know some of you are missing school. Here are some ideas to keep thinking and use your creative skills. You can take photos and upload them into a google doc or drawing or slideshow and then write about them.

If possible it would be great if you could read, write and work out some math problems each day. 
Remember to play, create, notice, think and wonder.


I am available via email crichmond@hameast.school.nz 

If you are doing some work in your Google Drive, share it with me and we can communicate via the comment boxes.

Toikupu - Poetry

Our class loves learning about, reciting and writing our own poetry. School Kit had suggested reading the poem This is Just to Say by William Carlos Williams. Then thinking of naughty things we may have done to write our own poems inspired by it.

Lego!

The day the lego arrived. 
We were first at school so we got to play with it the longest.



Mmmmm, what should we make?

The coin experiment


Ten cent coin experiment - written by Antonia
Goal: see how many drops of water you can fit on a ten-cent coin.
Equipment: eyedropper, 10 cent coin, container lid, and water.

  1. Get a 10 cent coin and put it on a container lid.
  2. Fill the eyedropper with water.
  3. Drop by drop put the water on the ten-cent coin and record how many drops of water you got and write it down.

I wonder how much water would fit on a 20 or 50 cent coin.
I noticed that when we pushed the eyedropper the water built up, not to the sides, it formed like a bubble of water on top of it.  

Pātai/Questions
