Living and Learning : I can illustrate happy and healthy choices.
Our whole school homework produced some super examples, including songs, posters, games, a cow (to show a lactose intolerance) and lots of discussions. Children illustrated how they make healthy choices about food, exercise and sleep.
Living and Learning – Making healthy choices
We talked about healthy choices for different parts of our body and discussed this in our groups. Then, we jotted our ideas down on the figure of a person.
We talked about the link between mental and physical health. We finished off by watching a clip showing how food is made to look better than it really is, and how it gets a makeover to make you want to buy it.
The children were very engaged in this topic.

start life as babies
