Visiting Harold

Traffic lights for food?  Before Room 16 met Harold they thought traffic lights were for cars and traffic.  But now they have learnt that using food traffic lights will help them make good choices of healthy food.  Thanks to Harold and Lynn for teaching us so many new things about healthy eating.

"Put Your Rubbish In The Right Bin."

At Team Assembly we have been talking about the need to "put your rubbish in the right bin" and the consequences to our environment if we just let our rubbish blow into the creek or down to the beach.  This was motivation for Samson, Maggie and Alexandra to write about why we need to put our rubbish in the right bin.

"I had to sweep the bay.  My brother had to help me.  My Mum came to look at the rubbish and she saw it was cleaned."

"The rubbish goes to the sea and to the fish.  The fish eat the rubbish.  The fish get sick."

Chevelle's Amazing Body Story.

"The brain had to be protected."  By Chevelle

We have been learning about our amazing body.  Harold show us the digestive system and what happens to our food but we wanted to find out why some of our body felt squishy and some parts felt hard.  We learnt that we have a skeleton made up of 206 bones and that some of these bones help protect the vital organs underneath them.  Chevelle did a great job of illustrating a skeleton with the details of the ribs and skull and remembering that the brain needs to be protected.
