End of Term 1

And so we wrap up a very productive term. Room 4 has been very active with their learning. We have looked at how our muscles grow, why nutrition and exercise are important and how our brain grows. With this we have also looked at the growth mindset and what resilience looks like in their ever changing environment. We’ve also looked at how ideas are communicated through reading and how we can communicate our ideas in our writing.

To complete the Food for thought programme, we shopped for healthy foods and made it for our class of 30. So we had to look at proportions and budgeting as we had to get all the ingredients for under $60.

Nutrition is key

We have had a busy fortnight, the students have been having educational sessions with the Heart foundations Food for thought programme. They looked at what our body needs for nutrition and how to read nutritional labels on products. They then used this knowledge in a “supermarket” setting choosing and comparing products.
