TE RITO TOI IN SCHOOL DURING COVID-19
This report examines the use of Te Rito Toi in twelve schools during Covid-19 in 2020. It explores the way in which teachers adapted the resources to their own needs and the outcomes derived from its use. It also identifies the key factors that made the arts in schools possible. The implications of this study for future crises are considered.
While we appreciate that Te Rito Toi was initially developed to help students return to school post COVID-19, we have watched this project grow and develop into a set of resources that are applicable for use by teachers, artists, and homeschool educators to work with children following many types of traumatic events and experiences.
