“Such an engaging and exciting hands-on learning opportunity for our learners. We loved the tuakana teina aspect of the kit as we needed some help with the construction of the larger items. The reo was also so engaging and enjoyable for our tamariki.”

How did the context of farming allow your learners to explore and develop literacy? It gave children who have never been on a farm a visual experience of things that are on a farm. We used the farm bricks when learning about the names of things that are nouns on a farm.

“The children worked together to create the different parts that made up the farm. They were so excited! Some did find it tricky to put the bigger buildings and vehicles together, so the lego experts in the class helped them. Once it was all built...they have enjoyed interacting together to create their own farms.”

“The students were fascinated with the bricks. Some but not all had been collecting them or seen them before. They enjoyed working together as they assembled the farm. They rose to the challenge and demonstrated resilience. We used the kit for maths, literacy and social sciences. We explored albeit briefly farms and gardens. A fantastic resource that we will cherish for a long time. Thank you.”
