Thank you so much to all the learners who sent in your videos last week displaying the amazing learning you have done throughout this term. I really enjoyed watching you all! You can still upload your videos and fill out the Reflection form on WEEK 9 if you would like to.

This week we are doing things a little bit different. As we head into 2 weeks of school holidays we would like to take this opportunity to share some ideas of how you and your family can stay fit and healthy as well as having lots of fun together. We hope you enjoy the different learning tasks we have suggested and look forward to hearing lots of stories after the holiday break.

Guess the word!

Using the Fitness Alphabet spell out a word using the different fitness skills for each letter (Click here for the Alphabet). See if someone in your family can guess the word without telling them what it is.

Balloon Tap Challenge

See who can keep the balloon up off the ground using only your feet/knees/head?

Obstacle Course

Create your own obstacle course.

It could be inside or outside.

Think about different objects you could use to put in your course. For example: a chair (to crawl over/under), a broom to jump over, a hose to create a line for you to follow.

Think about different ways you could move. For example: skipping, hopping, running, jumping and so on.

You might even choose to move like different animals through different sections of your course.

Try to make it as creative as you can and then share it with other people in your house to have a go to!

Star Jump Challenge!

Who in your family can continue to do Star Jumps for the longest time?
Who can do the most number of Star Jumps correctly in 30 seconds?

Healthy Eating Ideas!

Being aware of what sort of foods we should be eating more/less of is important for keeping our bodies healthy.

This site: https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/guidelines/australian-guide-healthy-eating has some fantastic information about Healthy Food Choices and also has some great recipes you might like to try.

Healthy Eating Lesson

Using the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating diagram see if you can work out which section the foods you eat today fall into.

For example:

Breakfast: Eggs on toast........ Eggs - Blue section, Toast - Orange section, Butter (on the toast) - outside the circle (use small amounts)

Snack: Banana - Light Green section

Lunch: Ham and salad wrap......... Ham - blue section, Wrap - Orange section, Salad - Dark Green section
