ʻĀINA At Home!
May 29, 2020
Our ʻĀINA community has been busy creating fun videos inspired by our ʻĀINA Curriculum:
-
Hold and Pick It Song - SBES students Toa and Tama sing the “Hold and Pick It” song from the Grade 1 Good Buddy Garden Unit to remind us how to gently harvest from our garden plants. See their video here.
-
Butterfly Life Cycle - SBES Gr. K docent Marilyn Roitman and her daughter Chloe created a collection of butterfly life cycle models using craft items they had at home. Watch Chloe show off her collection here.
Would you like to create a short ʻĀINA-themed video with your family? Check these guidelines and email your videos to [email protected].
