@Daniel89839721 Exactly! And as educators we must ensure that we provide the information to students, especially about important areas such as health and wellbeing.

@Daniel89839721 I think the best way to combat sleep deprivation would be to discuss the negative impacts a lack of sleep can have with the students.
English
@MattStone27 Wow, this was really insightful and eye opening!! How do you think we as teachers can combat sleep deprivation?

This video has really shocked me! The impact of sleep cannot be understated, and it goes beyond the academics of the classroom. The negative effect sleep deprivation has on students wellbeing is tremendous. encourage healthy lifestyles.#UoNTeach #Educ4750

@Daniel89839721 It really is. I hope that is beneficial for you, whenever you use it. In my opinion, it would be a great way to introduce students to health and wellbeing
English
@MattStone27 This looks like a good article, i look forward to applying it to my future lessons.
English
Great article on the impacts of sleep on students academic performance, and on their health and wellbeing by the CDC. Good health and wellbeing is critical for all people, and must be upheld.google.com/url?sa=t&sourc…

@MattStone27 I feel that students are more likely to engage with the information when they can visibly hear and watch it rather than just reading it from a piece of paper. Do you agree?

WIRED Innovate is such a powerful virtual event that works with founders and co-founders to advocate for a 'shift to a sustainable future.' This could be a great #stimulus to incorporate into the #sustainability unit to encourage students to take action. #SDG12 #UoNTeach

@SophieC42723073 This would be awesome to have as a resource. It provides many different STEM projects that I haven't even thought of. Thanks for sharing!
English
The NSW Government Education website provides information such as #sustainability resources and how to take action. This website can assist you when making links to your sustainability unit and provide teaching resources such as STEM projects. #SDG12 education.nsw.gov.au/teaching-and-l…

@SophieC42723073 Oh wow. This is so incredible, and what a great idea. This activity helps the environment, provides students with knowledge of a new sustainable approach and develops a range of skills. Amazing!
English
Here is a fantastic way to reuse recycled paper! Integrating art into the sustainability unit can give the students the opportunity to learn new skills an can encourage them to continue recycling at home. #SDG12 #uonteach #Educ4750

#rchkpyp Y1 making recycled paper today with paper we can no longer use. Next we we will use it for our art!
English
@SophieC42723073 What a great idea! I think many schools can benefit from having a compost bin. And it would make students more aware of their surrounding environment.
English
Having a school #compost garden is also a great innovative activity to encourage students to use waste to better the environment! A compost garden in schools would also help creating a worm farm. #SDG12 #educ4750 #uonteach

Congrats to Casella's "Innovator of the Year," @UMassLowell! UML converted 280 tons of food scraps into compost and energy. Some food scraps were composted and used in campus landscaping, while some were converted into energy at an anaerobic digester: bit.ly/3aOa6j1
English
@Daniel89839721 I would talk about the connection between the two. It is important that students know the importance of sleep, and its impacts on their daily life. Providing this awareness to students is crucial, in my opinion.
English
@MattStone27 Mental health and sleep go together and both can have negative impacts if they aren't talked about/addressed. What would you discuss with the students about both of these?
English
This article, found on the sleep foundation's website (sleepfoundation.org/mental-health) showcases how mental health and sleep are connected. Encouraging our students to be conscious of their sleep schedule is one way to ensure good health and wellbeing. #UoNTeach #Educ4750 #SDG3
English
@GrimmondLee I agree. There are so many benefits to this act. It provides students to learn about health and provides students with knowledge and understanding of how to prepare certain healthy food.
English
@MattStone27 Involving students in cooking healthy foods in schools is a great idea! It will allow students to want to make and eat this food at home.
English
Great initiative! It also shows how #Goodhealthandwellbeing does not have to be a hard process. #UoNTeach #Educ4750

@Daniel89839721 Yes, beneficial to all parties mentioned. Sleep is important to health and wellbeing of all people. We should all make efforts in this regard.

@Daniel89839721 Agree 100%. The steps organisations like beyond blue are taking to ensure students' health and wellbeing are great. Inspiring to know the community is involved in maintaining optimal health of the future generations.

@Daniel89839721 I think I will vary my approach to each class, but the main lessons will be interactive. I would hope to engage my students with their learning, particularly about a subject such as health.

@MattStone27 World Health Day is such a great awareness imitative. What ways do you think you'll educate your students about health?

@SophieC42723073 Thanks for sharing, I will look into the Newcastle Herald more often! And BTN was something I always looked forward to as a student. It is a great resource.
English
@MattStone27 I loved watching BTN in primary school as it was an engaging way for students to connect to the world around them and learn about some of these issues. As an educator, I find that the NewcastleHerald is great for learning about news locally.

Behind The News. A wonderful resource that allows you to connect the learning of a variety of KLA's to students in an interactive manner. This video talks about the benefits of sleep, one of the crucial pillars to good health and wellbeing. #UoNTeach #SDG3
English
@Daniel89839721 Yes it really is. I feel this resource should be adapted in more schools, as it is important to ensure the students are happy and healthy.
English
@MattStone27 What a fantastic resource! A resource that is able to link school, home and the community together will allow for students to feel safe and welcome wherever they go.

The wellbeing classroom is an intervention program based in schools. This is a fantastic initiative that connects school, home and the community together to create a holistic environment for students. A great initiative for health and wellbeing #UoNTeach
English
@SophieC42723073 It really is a great resource. I cannot remember Healthy Harold from when I was in school, so it really is amazing to witness an interactive lesson focusing on health and wellbeing.
English
@MattStone27 I was lucky enough to re-live the Healthy Harold experience with my kindergarten class on my last prac! It is great to see that so many years later he is still educating whilst engaging the students about being healthy and safe. Such a great resource!
English
Healthy Harold is a great way to engage students with their health, and an interactive way to teach kids to be healthy, and be safe. It is important for many schools to engage with this resource, if they haven't already. Thank you for sharing Renee! #UoNTeach
Renee Pettet@PettetRenee
Does anyone else remember in primary school visiting a Healthy Harold Van? Such a great idea to encourage and promote health and safety of all Australian children and their families. Share your memories of Healthy Harold in the comments. #SDG3 lifeeducation.org.au/about-us/healt…

@SophieC42723073 I remember this being used on my prac and it amazing, providing a variety of fresh food to the students. And having the students being involved in their cooking is a fantastic idea!
English
@MattStone27 This is a fantastic strategy! Some schools even have the opportunity to have a kitchen where students can learn to cook some of these healthy snacks. Did you have this opportunity at your school?
English

@Daniel89839721 An outstanding local program, what a great way to get students engaged in their health!
English
@Daniel89839721 What an outstanding approach from The Centre for Rural and Remote Mental Health! This, along with being active, and having a healthy lifestyle ( such as proper sleep schedules) need to be noticed more to ensure students are happy and healthy, both physically and mentally.
