P2/3 were busy preparing for their Assembly last week. They made some multi-media presentations with the help of Kevin and the Technical Troopers (Ben< Jamie, Myah and Rhuaridh). We made a thrilling music video in the style of Michael Jackson. Our bones were moving in the Skeleton Dance and some of the moves from the Thriller original. We presented facts that we had learned from our Healthy Bodies IDL topic and we put these into our own words. We worked in groups to edit our presentation to match the pictures to the script we had made. here were some of the fascinating facts that we researched:
Jessica found out that your bones grow until you are 30 years old.
Daisy D. – You cannot see your skeleton but it holds your body in shape. Like a giraffe you have 7 bones in your neck.
Naomi – The bones are healthy. They are good. They keep you strong. Your heart beeps. Here is a question: why does your heart beat?
Answer:to pump blood around your body.
Daisy F. – Without bones you would be as wobbly as a jellyfish.
Our key questions that we are learning about are:
1. What are the main organs in my body and how do they function in a healthy body? HWB 1-05a, SCN 1-12a
2. What is a healthy body? How do I look after my body? HWB 1-15a, HWB 1-28a, SCN 1-12a
3. How does the food I eat affect my body? TCH 1-04a, TCH 1-04c, HWB 1-15a
4. What is a healthy mind? How can I look after my mind and who can I look to for support? HWB 1-05a
5. What is the link between the mind and body? HWB 1-05a, HWB 1-15a, HWB 1-28a
Many thanks to Annalise’s Mum and big sister for helping with the stage make-up. The ghouls and skeletons were very scary indeed!
Thank you for everyone who came to our Assembly.
