“Wow what a great experience my class had with the STEAM kit, they really loved solving all the clues to find Purple Monkey. They loved being involved in the different challenges and were all fully engaged with solving the puzzles to get the next clue.
It was fabulous to see them working so well collaboratively towards the end goal. I liked how the clues were scaffolded for different abilities, enabling all the children to participate and feel fully involved.
Thank you so much for producing and sharing with us another fantastic resource for Kiwi kiddies.”
“Wow - what an highly organised, thoughtful kit. Amazing attention to detail and great links to STEAM, so much so it was fab as a reflection tool for my students who had covered electrical circuits and unplugged digital teachnology in their previous STEM sessions. I decided to try this out a bit differently - we already had Lara's Yr4 class take part in the challenge and the next day some of the older students worked on some of the mini challenges with younger students - great to see them lead challenges and teach others :) Thank you - looking forward to using the kit next year as a intro to Digital Tech.”
“Absolutely loved this Kit and will be re-doing again with my class. As explained on FB our Purple Monkey had an accident and had to be replaced. Small hiccup.With Crime Scene tape on the door and detective hats on we had a great time. I can see this working as a relationship building exercise in Term 1 as well.”
“Wow, such an awesome kit and it was a perfect way to spend a day for my year 6’s at the end of the year! My class had a blast working as a team and for some of them it really tested their perseverance! I loved that the instructions were easy to follow, the whole thing was easy to set up and the students got so much out of it. Thank you School Kit for another hands on, fun and engaging kit!”
“Wow what an amazing time we had doing this kit. The kids were so engaged and had a blast! They went home gushing to their parents about the best day ever.”
“Wow! What an amazing kit. So well organised and the instruction booklet was easy to follow. Thank you so much School Kit. This is the first one I've ever done and I'm definitely keen to do more now! My class loved this kit and were so engaged. It was awesome to see them working collaboratively to solve the problem. A great way to end the year!”
“What a great idea for the end of the year! While some of the teacher notes were a little tricky to get my head around and some of the more impulsive kids got out of sequence or took other groups clues, overall it was heaps of fun and I'd love to do the same type of thing again. It highlighted the importance of critical thinking,
teamwork and contributing. Thanks so much.”
