A conversation was had about how Manaakitanga/care and respect looks when we are using our ukeleles at kindergarten and the children shared their ideas....
Wintrow shared that we will be "keeping it safe".
"When you finished using it put it bac" Elliot shared.
"Put it up there or in the cover" Alice added pointing to our ukelele stand.
"If someone used a hammer it might break" James shared with us very thoughtfully.
"Yeah you would say kiato (stop)" Elliot added to support James' idea.
Just some of the children's ideas are shared above. He aha o whakaro? What do you think?
After kotahintaga some children enjoyed spending some time with Sandra as she tuned them. This was a great opportunity for children to also be supported with holding the ukeleles before they explored the different sounds they could make while using them. Digby even shared his musical talent as he sung a song about the colour purple while strumming the cords before others joined in by singing along with this new song!
