Content

  • Please note this is a 4-week block. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - A chance for children to immerse themselves in the art of origami with a seaside-inspired theme while developing their fine motor skills and learning the fundamental techniques and principles of this ancient Japanese art form. I recommend that participants have a pack of good quality origami paper* that can be purchased online or from craft and stationery stores. This term, we'll fold our vibrant papers into charming fish and other seaside themed creations. Then, they can arrange them against a backdrop to create a piece of seaside art, home made greeting cards or hang them from threads for a mobile that blows in the summer breeze. Each session will introduce new folds and concepts that gradually build their skills and confidence. Live sessions will facilitate real-time interaction, allowing participants to seek guidance, share their creations and engage in a supportive community of young origami enthusiasts. Those catching up in the recordings have the opportunity to pause and rewind to repeat instructions and make their models in their own time. Your children may like to do both!

  • Overall, the goal is to provide a fun and engaging learning experience while promoting cognitive, motor and creative development through origami. More specific learning objectives for this block of origami include: * Develop Fine Motor Skills: Folding origami requires precise hand movements, helping to enhance fine motor skills in children. * Spatial Awareness: Participants will gain an understanding of spatial relationships and geometry as they manipulate paper to create different shapes and structures. * Creativity and Imagination: Encourage participants to explore their creativity and imagination by designing their own origami creations within the seaside theme. * Following Instructions: * Cultural Appreciation: * Patience & Perseverance

STEAM, Coding, Lego & JapanTutor

Hello! I’m Hannah – the founder of Story STEAM – inspiring your children in all things STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths) Coding and Lego! So, a little bit about me… Since completing my BEd Primary Studies (hons) with a specialism in Design Technology, I’ve been a teacher (Reception to Year 6) for over 20 years. In between those 20+ years, I moved to Nara, Japan to take part in the JET (Japanese Exchange and Teaching) programme where I taught English as an additional language to middle-schoolers and adults for 3 years. On returning to live in the UK, I was given responsibility for English and ICT/Computing in the school I worked in. Fast forward to 2020 and remote teaching planted a seed in my mind. During the lockdowns, I spent time reflecting and thinking about what children are not getting at school that I could bring to them online. Story STEAM was born! My son Tomi loves helping with my classes – testing out ideas – especially with coding and micro:bit! Children need time to invent and be creative; it’s good for their mental health. Through STEAM, Coding and Lego Club activities, I hope to give children the opportunity to create while using maths, learning about science, technology, engineering and most importantly – HAVE FUN!

“£2 tuition hub was the best resource I found my entire time home educating. I’m still currently using the £2 Hub 3 years later”

Maxine, Parent

“Fantastic group has helped us through 3+ years of home ed, wish we knew of you before that when we first started ”

Sharon, Parent

“This group is without doubt an absolute blessing. Fantastic classes with amazing teachers at an extremely reasonable price. I for one am so thankful to you and your team for everything you all do. We appreciate the hub so much and are very grateful xx ”

Claire, Parent

“We have been taking part in the BSL lessons and the other day had great fun finger spelling while shopping. Two of my children have dyslexia with T being more severe, he hates and refuses spellings. Along comes BSL and he’s loving spellings!” ”

Holly, Parent

“Our family are full time travellers and the hub is a life line for us. The children get to see and speak to adults who show a real interest in their learning and their lives. They get to pick lessons that they are interested in and have fun learning something new. The social hub was a real life line for us too. My 3 have made friends and love getting to chat to children and adults daily too. ”

Donna, Parent

“I can’t thank you enough for starting this group Amy. You gave me back my happy (not so little anymore) boy. Thanks to this group he’s realised he’s not the stupid, naughty kid that school made him believe he was. His sister is on school holidays and he’s doing recorded lessons by choice. Xxxx ”
