LI: using your new knowledge and your smart searching skills.

For this task me and my partner had to make DLO of why you have to eat healthy. We learnt about  portion sizes. Fruits, vegetables, grain, dairy, and protein are important in this topic. For example, vegetables are important because they contain fibre. Fibre is important for our body because fibre keeps the digestive system healthy and well. Fruits contain vitamins that are needed for our body. Dairy contains something called calcium. Calcium maintains and strengthens strong and healthy bones.

I found this activity interesting because I got to make a DLO about food portions. One fact I learnt is that you should be drinking 8+ cups of water a day.

We went to the AUT  Millennium training centre, We learnt about water safety and I got to learn what a huddle posture is. A huddle posture is when all of the people huddle in there water and you put the eldest oor the yougest or the most hurt person in the middle you put your feet  all together in the middle. The other thing I learnt to help you in the water was the chain. To do a chain, a group of people have to go into a line. The order of the line matters. The person at the back must be the strongest swimmer and the person in the front has to be the injured or the weakest. You would have to hug your chest to keep your organs warm and to prevent hypothermia. 

I found this really interesting because I got to learn about water safety and how to be safe in the wild.
