In term 3, P6 have been exploring the affect of drugs, alcohol and medicine on our bodies. We have considered what group different substances belong to (illegal, legal or prescribe) as well as the impact they have on our bodies (stimulant or depressant).
The class have worked hard to investigate the issues with smoking, and the long term impact this can have on our body and organs. They made posters and PowerPoints to discourage people from smoking, using catchy slogans like “Don’t Smoke – It’s a Joke” and eye catching illustrations such as blackened lungs to make the reader think.
This week, we have looked at the different parts of the brain and the impact that alcohol has on each of these. We watched a very education video that helped us understand the short and long term impacts of alcoholism. Please find the video below if you fancy learning something new today!
