We have been reading "George's Marvellous Medicine" in class. We decided to make our own " Marvellous Medicine" from construction materials. There was shampoo bottles and 'chicken pills', paint and perfume, plus many more things that went into the "big pot" of medicine.
In goes the shampoo!
In goes the paint!
In goes the perfume!
In goes the 'chicken pills'!
This week we had a visit from Life Education's Harold. He taught us more about healthy eating and how good food helps our bodies. We got to see a skeleton and help Harold make good food choices for his lunchbox.
Here we are learning about our bones and why our body needs strong bones.
This is where we we choose if a food is a GO, GROW, SLOW or WHOA food.
Here we are choosing what is the best type of food for Harold to have in his lunchbox.
In our maths we have been learning about statistics. We tied this in with learning about healthy food by looking at our lunchboxes to see what types of food we are eating at school.
We made a graph to see how many children in Room 1 had GO, GROW, SLOW or WHOA food in their lunchboxes.
We found all children in Room 1 had some GO food in their lunchbox. That is some fruit or vegetable.
Most children in Room 1 had GROW food in their lunchbox. Milk (provided by 'milk in schools') , cheese, yoghurt, sandwiches and rice crackers.
Some children had WHOA food which they decided they would eat at the end of the day so it wouldn't stop their learning. Ka pai Room 1, well done!
Wow Room 1, you have been very busy in your class. Who is going to try the marvellous medicine you have created? Imagine if Mrs Armstrong had some, she might burst through the classroom roof!
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work Room 1.
