Just attended financial capability workshop facilitated by Te Toi Tupu facilitators. We explored awesome resources which includes school stories and strategies to implement and integrate financial literacy and build financial capability. http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/Curriculum-resources/Financial-capability.

It was great to hear Mangere Central school's journey in building students' financial capability. 

How can we empower our students to be financially sustainable ? 

Fiona and Annemarie, These are great ideas ! Great context to use QR codes. Please keep these ideas coming as this will be a great resource for us to implement in our schools.

Kia ora Sarah, Sounds like your school had lots of exciting activities and challenges during Maths week. Great to hear that teachers were competing with students in a minute challenge.

Hi Marnel, Thanks for sharing your students' work especially students describing their shape on pegboard.

Thanks Allanah. I will try jing and screencastify. Very excited to create some tutorials.

Wow! Allanah, you are amazing! Thank you so much for preparing this little clip which is quite powerful to share with schools. I have learnt so much. Thanks.

Another question.... What tool did you use to create this You tube clip? I would like to create short clips.
