Just wanted to say a BIG Thank You to all those that have tried out our Health and Wellbeing task. They are looking FAB!

Don’t worry if you haven’t had a chance to do one yet you still have another week to go.

Please send on your creative pieces of your work to your teacher so we can collect them all to create a Sway for you all to see .

Thanks

Literacy mild challenge – Happy Lists

15 Comments

We are learning to write lists.

As an adult I write lists all the time.

With so many different things happening lately I have found it helpful to write  some happy lists.

This has helped me to focus on what is going well and worry a little bit less.

Happy List Ideas

  • This Week’s Happy Moments

  • Happy Places

  • Happy Moments or Memories

  • Happy Songs

  • List words about a friend or pet that makes you happy.

I have had a go at writing some Happy Lists  in this book.

I have filmed some of my happy places to share with you.

Take a moment to look and listen.

I wonder what you might make happy lists about?

Thank you to everyone who completed the survey.

When you gather in information it can be called ‘raw data’ like raw chicken you can’t do much with it, so you have to do something in order for it to be used. For instance, cooking the chicken or presenting the data in a way that is readable.

Below is a list of the data that has been collated. Your task is to use the data given and present it in a readable manner. This could be in the form of a pictogram, bar graph or pie chart.  Look through the sway below on suggestions and reminders when presenting the information.
