I hope you're doing well. Up and down days, right?
I attended an encouraging webinar today with the National Library. We are being encouraged to take care of our wellbeing. To be kind to ourselves while doing what we can, working during a crisis.
They shared some helpful websites:
Sparkles - helps by sharing some simple wellbeing tools and ideas for parents, tamariki and whanau.
Te Papa has online jigsaws from their taonga, to help you relax. You can choose the number of pieces in your puzzle.
I also want to remind parents and teachers about EPIC, which is funded by the MOE. Please note, it is a different organisation from the epic digital library. If you would like to sign in to EPIC - the online Encyclopedia - please email your teacher or me (library@woodlandspark.school.nz) for the login and password.
A National librarian showed us around some of the EPIC features this morning. I particularly like the Gale interactive Science models (think dinosaurs, an interactive periodic table, volcanoes, etc), and National Geographic Kids.
MOTAT is adding new info daily - for kids, parents & teachers.
I don't want to overload you with info, but I'll leave you with something fun: Matt Lucas's NHS health video "Thank you baked potato" (warning - its an earworm!):
