Wonder by R.J. Palacio: an insightful resource that shows different sides of #mentalhealth. It is the story that started the #choosekind movement and I have personally had successful lessons with a Stage 3 class using the book.

Fantastic idea to teach students the serving sizes of food, how much they should be eating a day and what foods are the healthy ones so the ones they should be eating more of and the ones they should be eating less of. #UoNTeach #Educ4750

A great way for students to truly understand what their plate should look like. It is also interesting that the two posters are different. An activity may include students analysing the two and discussing the differences. Thanks for the share Jorja! #SDG3 #educ4750 #uonteach

@cram_ms Such a fantastic idea that could be used in a variety of different ways during lessons to help further extend students knowledge about healthy fruits and vegetables. Picture books are a great resource.

Another post that supports the benefits pets can have on our mental health and well-being. A lesson idea could be for students to write why they think their pet benefits their mental health and well-being! Maybe a persuasive text? #educ4750 #uonteach #dogsarelove

@Paige_Gabriel1 @MissHardy18 Picture books can be a very effective learning resource within the classroom. Picture books allow students to extend their knowledge for learning.

Reading picture books is an engaging activity. Kids are able to connect with the book & become inspired. 'Mind Hug' by Emily Arber is a great book that teaches kids to practice breathing to control their thoughts! Press the link for more books #educ4750 acornbooksblog.wordpress.com/2018/02/06/pic…

Picture books are useful when teach students about mindfulness, regulating emotions etc. What is your classroom favourite? Mine is 'Listening to my Body' by Gabi Garcia as it effectively explains to children how to understand and communicate their emotions. #uonteach #educ4750

Its important as a teacher to include all students within their lessons no student should feel left out no matter their learning processes. 1 in 5 Australians experience a mental health in any one year. #educ4750 #uonteach

There is so many different mental health disorders that come under the umbrella of mental health. How do we as teachers adress all of these disorders and the different ways they affect children and their education? #educ4750 #uonteach #sdg3

An interesting article food for thought: about the thought of what we feed children and the impact it can have on their mental health. The question is does what my children eat affect their mental health? #educ4750 #uonteach
