In what ways did the kit allow development of strategic thinking for your students? Unable to do with Covid, need to complete when back on school grounds. Despite this, the kit looked engaging and I’m excited to teach it.

“Hi there, unfortunately we haven’t been able to collaborate using this school kit as we have been in lockdown in Auckland during the time we were meant to be teaching this.”

How has this kit influenced your confidence in STEM teaching and learning? No. I totally didn't understand the planning of this kit so it felt like my teaching wasn't as strategic/deliberate as it could have been . . .
“Unfortunately we haven't yet completed our Jean Batten work due to covid but the tamariki were loving the context and were super engaged with their learning. As a teacher I did find the change in planning format difficult to follow and piece together and didn't feel like the 'flow' was as clear as in previous kits that I had completed.”
