Puppet FriYAY!

To explain our little Room 7 Challenge, Jamie said "We made puppets, because last lockdown one of our students went to school with some other school mates and did some challenges like 'Shiny Thursday' and 'Fun Socks Friday'. Our class wanted to try it too!"

Students were excited to attempt making puppets, but they initially felt a bit anxious with HOW to make them and WHAT to use. Room 7 have been learning, all year, about using questioning to help us understand things better and make decisions that will help us. With the help of YouTube and Google they found instructions, but some of them didn't have the right materials to make them. Thankfully their whanau were able to help these students and they improvised, using other materials. 

Here is a screenshot of our Google Meet this morning. Didn't they do well?

  4. Room 7, I am so impressed with your creativity and learning to use the materials around you at home. Being resourceful is a great skill to develop as we all know 'nothing is impossible.' Good on you for showing initiative. I am proud of you.

  5. Hi there Room 7. Gosh, look at what you busy children have been making! I'm amazed at the wonderful and various styles of puppets. I like the way you have improvised using things from around you homes. So creative! Well done Room 7. Now, could you make a puppet show, telling a story about lockdown?
