@KempTyla Scratch and other ICT resources are amazing within the classroom. I do believe nothing beats going outside but ICT within 21st century are rapidly growing and finding new resources to go along with the units within classrooms is incredible!

This can also be used in sdg3 as it connects to my general capabilities also for ICT. By teaching students about the importance of cleaning up it will allow for a much healthier environment to live in as a society. Scratch is a great way to promote this #educ4750 #UoNTeach

ICT is one of my general capabilities within my unit plan. Students love scratch and will make such a fun and engaging lesson! #UoNTeach #educ4750

@happymissmiller Cooking classes are a great idea so then students can see the next steps in the process and understand where their healthy food comes from. Connecting with culture is also very important especially from a young age.
English
Community gardens are a great resource to have in a school setting as they have been matched with multiple beneficial wellbeing outcomes. Students also get to have hands on learning whilst having fun! #educ4750 #UoNTeach soac.fbe.unsw.edu.au/2007/SOAC/ther…

@alison_tyrie I agree, students should always feel included within the classroom. If we can teach them it will help guide them in the future.
English
@KempTyla What a cute book. It is extremely import for students to have a sense of belonging and self worth this can be created within a classroom. As for standing up for themselves that's a harder concept for some students to grasp.
English
@Emilyosheaeduc I agree thats a very good idea! Picture books can be utilised in so many different ways. The possibilities are endless!
English
@KempTyla Picture books are always an awesome resource! Maybe this could be a stimulus for an art activity related to mental health.
English
@Emilyosheaeduc I agree! It definitely helps with a teacher/student relationship and allows the teacher to know where the student is at and how they can help them further in school.
English
@KempTyla Well-being check ins are so important to incorporate in your every day classroom routine! It’s a great way to gauge how to best support each student every day. Even creating strategies with the children on what they can do if they aren’t feeling so good.
English
Teachers have now started using check ins more regularly in the classrooms as a tool for wellbeing and mental health. Do you think this is important in the classroom? Would you use this? #educ4750 #UoNTeach edutopia.org/article/buildi…
English
@alison_tyrie It has definitely been beneficial for the older kids as they have more of an awareness of the outside world. It is great that teachers are checking in more now.
English
@KempTyla Oh interesting. I like this concept would work well for older kids.
English
@Emilyosheaeduc Students will enjoy this as they will most likely find it interesting. Community projects would be beneficial
English
This is a great way to integrate the cross curriculum priority sustainability and the #SDG11. Exploring what we can do as a community to protect the environment or even creating a school event to celebrate Earth Hour. #UoNteach #educ4750

Teachers have the responsibility to implement culturally responsive pedagogy within a growing diverse Australian society. Study by Vass (2017) looks at the barriers affecting culturally responsive efforts within schools. …-sagepub-com.ezproxy.newcastle.edu.au/doi/10.1177/00… #educ4750

@happymissmiller I agree! Exercise for students will also help with their wellbeing don't you agree?
English
It is proven that having PE in schools is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle and to maintain students mental health. By making it engaging and fun it allows students to exercise without knowing and participate at higher rates! #educ4750 #UoNTeach tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10….
English
@aden_corbett2 I agree, each classroom should have one of these where students at anytime can change it if needed
English
@KempTyla A great way for students to communicate their emotions non verbally, this may be less confronting and more effective!
English
@aden_corbett2 Especially in the 21st century it is a great use of pedagogy in the classroom. I'm glad you agree. :)
English
@KempTyla Using ICT resources like this is a great way to engage and educate students!

The Woolworths initiative allowing students to have a piece of fruit allows students to learn about what foods are accessible to them. This teaches kids that a fresh piece of fruit or veg to give them more energy! Is this a good idea? #educ4750 #UoNTeach camdenadvertiser.com.au/story/7230508/…

@aden_corbett2 I agree! It is always important to look after your wellbeing. Students will benefit from this as it is an important message.

@KempTyla What a great resource! Looking after your mental health is paramount to your overall wellbeing!

@CarletonMEDU It's always a good idea to have the essential information within a classroom! This outlines it perfectly and allows for critical thinking to take place in the classroom.
English
@KempTyla Agree, very important tool for the classroom, The information provided is essential.
English
This is a really important tool to use in the classroom. In sdg3 it can assist students on how to set up and utilise an information report or hands on learning eg) for a community garden to grow fresh produce for the school! #UoNTeach #educ4750
Ryan Hansen@MrHansen96
Looking to integrate #criticalandcreativethinking as a #generalcapability? Check out this doc from @ACARAeduau (australiancurriculum.edu.au/media/1072/gen…)! It breaks down the skills that students can display - I'll be looking at Level 3 skills in my unit on #SDG15. #UoNTeach #educ4750
English
@CarletonMEDU I agree, it is very beneficial for both the students and the whole school community don't you agree?
English
@KempTyla Great initiative, the perfect way to implement environmental sustainability into the school.
English
Community gardens are a very important resource to have within a school as it promotes pedagogical learning for students. This matches my project overview as it connects to sdg3 and how it is important to teach kids about a healthier lifestyle and the process. #educ4750 #UoNTeach
Shannon Rose@MissShanRose
Prevention Institute (2004) highlights the benefits of community gardens on both mental and physical health in rural communities. If there wasn't a community garden within your local area, would you attempt to start one? #educ4750 #UoNTeach #SDG3
English
@CarletonMEDU It is isn't it! It will always help to bring the focus back and remember the main points in the classroom and in the lesson
English
@KempTyla Great resource, Perfect way to recall back on the key focus' of lessons and general classroom management.
English
@CarletonMEDU It definitely does and is a great resource for the classroom! Will be helpful for teachers when dealing with wellbeing
English
@KempTyla Great book here, highlights perfect ways to maintain mental well-being
English
This book would be great in a wellbeing unit! It can be used in a PE unit where mental health is mentioned. It would also go along well with my tweet on having check in corners for students. #educ4750 #UoNTeach
Shannon Rose@MissShanRose
How good is finding literature that connects straight to the classroom! This book by Jon Burgerman touches on the different adversities that people may go through and that you are not alone in feeling different emotions. What's your favourite wellbeing book? #educ4750 #UoNTeach
