How To Videos

Encourage kids to have a go at making something new like a time capsule, shadow puppets or pizza!

Here, you will find resources, tools, ideas, and activities to support children with sensory processing, fine motor development, executive functioning skills, visual perception and visual motor skills and much more. Lots of great ideas for hands on activities at home for students.

Listening to and reading stories is the best way to help students develop their reading skills. Encourage students to listen to one of the stories below and maybe even have a go at making their own story video to share with their teacher.

For those at home with very inquisitive minds and never ending questions

For some of our students, reading other people's body language and emotions is really hard. In our regular classroom circle time, educators work with students to develop their social and emotional skills. If you have a little person at home who is a part of our What's the Buzz groups or who needs some help to recognize what others are feeling, the website below has some great ideas. Choose a video/feeling and talk to your child about what clues tell them how the person is feeling. THere are also accompanying story and activity ideas.

Here you can find all of our free materials organised and bundled. Hopefully we can in some small way help this tough time to be a little easier.
