Our fabulous focus for these weeks. Keep trying even when you think you've reached your limit. Take a break, have a think, come back to it. This is so important for our children, who can get discouraged by making mistakes, thinking that "Wrong is BAD!" and fearing ridicule or being told off. Instead, we try to explore mistakes as rich learning opportunities.
Superheroes in Training! Kia ora. This is where we showed our learning journey.
