Choices For Life Glow Meet

9 Comments

We had a glow meet all about choices for life . It was about smoking , drugs and alchohol and why the are not good for you. There was a short film about a boy called Liam who was getting pressurised into smoking. He took one draw and chose not to smoke. There was 6,000 children watching choices for life live on glow meet. They had the boy who played Liam and the boy who played Michael on the show talking about why not to smoke and do drugs. Liam loved swimming so he chose not to smoke as it would ruin his chances to become a proffesional and have a good career.

Why not post a reason why smoking is bad for you?

In class we have been studying famous people in World War 2.  So far we have looked at Neville Chamberlain, Winston Churchill and Adolf Hitler.  Today we started creating charcoal drawings of these people that we hope turn out well.  So far so good!

Here are the questions that the girls missed when they attended the sports festival.

1. “or I’ll tell terror” (p162).  What does this tell us about how people feel about the terror?  Find other examples to back up this view.

2. When the boys chapped the door looking for the terror, how does the woman’s tone show how she feels about :  a) the boys   b) the terror.   Explain your answer.
