Piwakawaka Lockdown Fun


I have been so impressed with the amount of work Piwakawaka has been producing in the Lockdown.
Below is some of the work they have completed:

1. Every day we meet for a Zoom meeting and discuss the work to be completed for the day.

2. The first day we had a Teddy Bear's Picnic - we then had to use WOW words and include a simile to describe the teddy bear's from the picnic.

3. We had to create a portrait of our soft toy.
Success Criteria:
- Detail
- Takes up whole page
- No background
- Initials and date somewhere on the bear
- Can colour or not (optional)

4. We have to write a narrative story pretending that we were the bear going on a space trip.
Success Criteria:
- WOW words
- A piece of speech
- A one word sentene
- A sentence beginning with an ly word

These children have completed this tasks to an incredible standard. Below is some examples of their work.

  4. Hi Piwakawaka,
    Wow! What fabulous work you have been doing at home. The adventures that your bears and soft toys went on were very exciting. I liked the way you used your capital letters and fullstops.
    Your drawings are wonderful. I look forward to seeing them all together on the wall at school. I especially like the way everyone has done something different.
    Stay safe, be good, and I look forward to seeing more of your great lockdown work.
    From Mrs Mackenzie 😎

  11. Kia ora Piwakawaka. Well haven't you all been super busy during Lockdown? I know that many of you have been meeting with Miss Lane every day, which is fabulous. You have created beautiful, detailed drawings of your soft toys - ka pai, and your descriptive writing really captured what your toys looked like, as well as important details like where they came from. I'm vey impressed with all of your efforts. We're looking forward to seeing back at school on Monday, take care and keep being kind! :-)
