As the Prime Minster said it was a matter of when not if. So here we are at home ready to teach from a distance. I am so happy that our school is fully digital it makes it easier, even if some need to borrow school chromebooks. We have recently finished looking at the Olympics and start our new Inquiry about Rules and Law. With a focus on Consumer Law and a bunch of students who purchase things everyday this was a good place to start.
We watch a clip on a boy called Anaru who buys a pair of shoes after explaining clearly what he is going to use them for. Not long during his practise playing basketball he finds they are unfit for purpose.
