Last week during CRT with Islay, the tamariki in Rongomātāne began exploring the amazing inner workings of the human body. We learned that the brain is the ‘boss’ of our system, requiring the left and right sides to co-operate perfectly to keep us moving and balanced.
To challenge ourselves, we’ve been practicing ‘brain gym’ exercises – including the ultimate test of teamwork: trying to walk in perfect sync with a buddy.
We also got creative by sculpting detailed mini brains out of clay, which sparked some great conversations about the squishy, “weird” texture of our creations!
Ka pai tō mahi, tamariki! Thank you for bringing such fantastic focus to our learning.
