Did anyone else go on a lockdown spring-cleaning bender?!

🩳 These labels were created for a Mum who was attempting (& succeeding) to whip her young daughter's bedroom into shape!

👕 These kid's clothing labels feature bright illustrations (perfect if your little ones aren't reading yet) and a choice of English or bilingual Māori/English vocabulary. Fingers crossed the kids will be putting away their own laundry in the right place soon* 🤞 (*This is yet to consistently happen at my place, but I'm forever hopeful 😅)

📋 Also popular this month have been our afternoon/evening routine trackers & rotating chores charts

➡️ You can find all these resources in the 'let's get organised at home' tab of our website, link in my bio!

🍎 Well, looks like many of us are back to school sooner than expected!

🌟 This popular free download has now been updated after a special request for a Māori only version! Shout out to my friend Mero for gifting her translation of this resource 🤗

📚 We printed both an English & Māori version at our place to assemble into bilingual reader, but you can download the version that best suits your class (Māori, English & versions that contain the wording 'daycare' & 'kindy' are all available on the website) You might want to upload your selection to your school's home learning platform instead of printing.

Look at the beautiful, smiling faces of the learners from Bridge Pa School! They're proudly displaying their new house signs which are named and themed after some of their significant local water ways

I didn't realise these images would be enlarged to that size, so I'm pretty stoked to see them looking super sharp! Thanks for sharing guys, so glad you're enjoying them 🤩👌

P.S - Congratulations also on your roll growth, keep your eyes peeled for a new house-sign design coming soon! 👀🧡

Class a bit unsettled? Feeling a bit stressed or anxious yourself?

Step 1) Eat a tub of ice cream – I’d recommend chocolate fudge
Step 2) Use the empty ice cream container to create a mini Balance Box/Calm Kit!

📬 Quick makeover of an old letter box for outside our 'Support Hub' offices! Our little Support Hub includes Family Support (me) LSC (Learning Support Coordinator) ESOL & Reading Recovery. This letter box is going to live in our little reception area with a pot of pencils & note paper on top! 🤗🌟📮 Anyone else have a letter box in their classroom? (Or kids that love writing you letters & leaving notes?) When I was teaching fulltime, letter writing used to be a regular part of our literacy block activities - we'd check the letter box once a day & being the postman or letter-box-checker was one of the most popular classroom jobs! #familysupport #letterwriting #classroomletterbox #leaveanote #rsvp #kiwikids #kiwiclassroom

🌏 It was a pleasure to create this set of 28 mini posters for a class of clever kids who have been investigating the rich theme of 'Kaitiakitanga' (guardianship) and what this means in their corner of Aotearoa. The class suggested the vocabulary and I created the graphics to match!

🌳 You can find this set of 28 Kaitiaki & Conservation mini posters by searching 'Kaitiaki' in both our Green Grubs website store and on Tpt 💚
