Ten tiny things

With only a handful of students attending our Pre Primary class in person and the remainder of students watching and learning eagerly from home it was an appropriate time to encourage some young minds to maybe suggest to walk to school instead of driving the car when they return to school, through the picture book story "Ten tiny things" by Meg McFinlay and Kylie Hughes - Odgers.

This fabulous resource was recommended by the Your Move Program for our little learners. It is available to be purchased with some reward points.

"Ten tiny things" was read to the students both attending school in person and to the remote students learning from home. The children were asked to think about how they travelled to school? The students were then asked that even though most of the children aren't travelling to school at the moment they can get out and about outside to get some exercise with their families. The children were then asked if they could find ten tiny things, just like in the story. Then when they return to school and they have a go at walking instead of driving in the car....maybe they can keep an eye open for ten tiny things.

The children attending school loved getting moving out around the school grounds exploring and finding ten tiny things. They said they were going to ask their parents if they could walk to and from school next time insead of driving in the "shiny, green, clean machine".
