A challenge was given to the students of Room 14 to complete for Friday's 'Disconnected Day'.
'How many non-device learning activities can you think of?
Make a list of them and try and do as many as you can.'
Adriana had a very busy day completing her Word Finds, playing Board Games, reading in the warm sun, practicing her League and Basketball skills, and finally completing her chores so there was less to do on the weekend. Ka pai, Adriana.

We can definitely say Room 14 took up the challenge and conquered it successfully by engaging in a variety of fun non-device activities.
Kia ora Ruma 14. What a good idea to have a device free day. I really miss board games because I used to play a lot with friends but don't actually own many. But I have been doing lots of puzzles which I don't normally do. How did it feel to have a break from devices for the day?
ReplyDeleteKia ora Phil, thank you for visiting our Blog. The teachers of Room 14 are very lucky to have a bunch of very creative students!
