@AmbrumMiss Thank you for sharing!! I'm a real advocate for high quality physical activity in school and would love to see this program in action😀
English
@MissCary24 I have seen this initiative first hand in schools and it is great! The kids are always active and there is minimal waiting time for activities/games which is awesome!!
English
Check out this amazing program ran in schools to promote quality physical activity in young children. Such a great program that ensure our students are getting the 60 minutes of physical activity each day. #UoNTeach #Educ4750

This is such a fantastic resource!! My students will love exploring this software as we create our own school garden. This software caters for 21st Century Learners, which is a key focus throughout my unit. #UoNTeach #Educ4750

What a fantastic resource that I will be using in my SDG3 unit of work. @GrowVeg have developed an online tool for students to electronically plan their own vegetable garden! This will motivate and engage 21st century learners #UoNTeach #Educ4750 growveg.com.au/garden-planner…

@AmbrumMiss I love this poster!! So many simple ways thats students can implement #mindfulness into their day. I also love the idea of having a quiet space within the classroom that students can access.
English
I love this poster! What a great visual way to show children how they can embed #mindfulness into their day when feeling certain ways. Fidget toys could also be added into a mindfulness area, including things such as squishys and tangle fidgets. #UoNTeach #SDG3 #Educ4750

I believe mindfulness is important! This is a resource to hang in my future classroom. It shows some visual mindfulness strategies for my students to use. I plan on having a whole area dedicated to mindfulness! What are some other strategies I can use? #UonTeach #educ4750 #SDG3

@AmbrumMiss Such a great organisation!! Teaching our students such an important message but through and engaging and fun way. Even I remember seeing Healthy Harold when I was in school. They had such a positive influence on my life into adulthood.😀
English
Preventative education is so important! Bringing external companies into schools to deliver crucial information is a fun way of delivering messages, helping students be more aware of the dangers of drug and alcohol use! #uonteach #educ4750 #SDG3
Life Ed | Healthy Harold@LifeEdAus
Based on best practice & evidence, our preventative health education program equips children with the knowledge & skills needed to make safe choices in their life. We do not use fear to motivate children into action but share the impact certain choices could have on their lives.

@Paige_Gabriel1 I will be focusing on De Bono's 6 Thinking Hats throughout my unit, as I want my students to begin to take on board different points of view. I will also be linking to 21st Century learning skills #collaboration #selfregulation #ICT, as these are essential skills in today's world
English
@MissAtkins00 It is so important we share these key message with students. Giving students the understanding of the key signs of bullying is the most important strategy to putting a stop to it !
English
@MissCary24 Such a great idea, thanks for sharing! Not only does the program have a great message but it also incorporates physical activity
English
What an amazing program! Definitely something all classroom teachers should check out. They engage students with crazy backflips, to teach them about bullying. My students absolutely loved the show and how engaging it was. Check it out actioneducation.com.au/backflips-agai… #UoNTeach #Educ4750

@MissAtkins00 @SpeersPointPS Exactly right... We want students to have all the energy they need to succeed throughout the school day. This can be done by ensuring all our students have a nutritious breakfast.
English
@MissCary24 @SpeersPointPS Breakfast clubs are so beneficial for schools to have. Really beneficial to start students day with no morning fuzzies
English
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! I love this initiative started at @SpeersPointPS. 1 in 5 children go to school without having breakfast. What would you offer your schools at Breakfast Club? #UoNTeach #Educ4750
NSW Dept of Education@NSWEducation
A toast to the Breakfast Club! 🍞 Student leaders and staff from @SpeersPointPS prepare and serve breakfast twice a week. Is your family team toast or team cereal? #LoveWhereYouLearn

@MissAtkins00 @OzHarvest I agree! It's an excellent opportunity for children to experiment with food. My students are going to have so much fun😊
English
@MissCary24 @OzHarvest I love the idea of personalised recipe books. The students would be able to experiment with the foods they love to make their own fun, healthy meals!
English
I love this initiative started by @OzHarvest. Throughout the program, children are given the opportunity to create their own recipe book full of healthy food ideas that all children will love to eat. I am looking forward to doing this with my students #UoNTeach #Educ4750
Banksia Foundation@BanksiaFdn
Have you heard of FEAST from @OzHarvest? The year 5 and 6 curriculum aligned program, inspiring kids to eat healthy, waste less and become change-makers in their local community. It’s a #BanksiaFinalist ozharvest.org/education/feas… #sustainability #foodwaste #eatwelllivewell

@MissAtkins00 This is such an important topic to teach children. There are so many misconceptions around what food is going to fuel our bodies throughout the day. Crunch&Sip is a great initiative aiming to increase students daily fruit and vegetable intake.
English
Such a scary figure and such a hard fix. At school we can’t control students exposure to online advertisements at home but we can teach students what foods we don’t need and what foods fuel us to be healthy and active #healthyeating #UoNTeach

@MissAtkins00 Thank you for sharing. There are some great idea here and so easy to integrate into the classroom. Have you thought about mindfulness colouring ?😀

@MissAtkins00 @YouTube This is such a great initiative to implement into rural schools!! I also love how it links directly to the Indigenous culture in the area, as well as promoting healthy eating habits. Creating recipe books would be another idea to incorporate into this program...

A really interesting program that would be awesome to roll out in rural schools for the whole schooling community. #UoNTeach #healthyeating Bulgarr Ngaru Fruit and Veg Program NSW youtu.be/ra7GIZ28IdA via @YouTube

@MissAtkins00 I love this idea of having an entire week dedicated to improving students wellbeing. It is so essential that we give young children the skills they need to succeed into adulthood😊

What a great idea having a whole week dedicated to #wellbeing and running activities designed to improve student wellbeing! #UoNTeach #beactive

@teachwithmaisey Thank you for sharing this video!! Love the use of child friendly language too. There are some great strategies students can use to regulate their own emotions😊. Check out @ZonesOfReg, they have some amazing resources about emotional regulation.

What an engaging video for teaching students to understand their feelings, become capable of recognising triggers for negative feelings & implementing strategies for dealing with feelings #UoNTeach #educ4750 youtu.be/KYfRzAIl7TQ

Thank you Action Education for presenting Backflips against Bullying @fairwest today & @Genelle029 for organising it for the school. It was such an incredibly informative and entertaining performance. Myself, Stage 3 teachers & the students thoroughly enjoyed it! #saynotobullying

@Paige_Gabriel1 It is very important!! Check out @headspace_aus website, they have some excellent resources to help with teaching children about cyberbullying...
English
Cyberbullying is becoming more of an issue especially in today's digital world, with many children have access to social media from a young age. I believe cyberbullying should be focused on more in primary school!! Do you agree with me? #UoNTeach #Educ4750
headspace@headspace_aus
This month, we are highlighting the impact of bullying on young Australians. In 2020, one in two young Australians surveyed reported experiencing a form of cyberbullying in the past. We've developed resources to help young people and their family & friends fal.cn/3echL

@AmbrumMiss @beccylou82 This was a great read and has really opened my eyes up to the amazing benefits of having support dogs in the classroom. I would love to see this implemented into my classroom to support students social and emotional development 😊
English
Thanks @beccylou82 for showing me this article in one of your recent tweets. The inclusion of dogs at school helps decrease anxiety, improving learner outcomes. Would you consider having a therapy dog at your school? #uonteach #Educ4750 #wellbeing theconversation.com/therapy-dogs-c…

@PettetRenee @MrHAClarke Exactly right.. there are so many benefits!!
English
@MissCary24 @MrHAClarke Excellent idea! Not only is this effective for mindfulness, it can also strengthen fine motor skills.
English
This looks amazing @MrHAClarke!! What a great opportunity for collaborative work through #mindfulness colouring. Also a great way for students to de-stress from a busy school day. I love to play mediation music in the background to calm students. #UoNTeach #educ4750
Mr Clarke 🙋🏼♂️@MrHAClarke
I can't remember who suggested it, but the whole class mindfulness colouring sheets from @twinklresources are great! Did struggle to find a place with the space to put it up though... 😂
