@Paige_Gabriel1 I will be really focusing on incorporating 21st Century Learning skills such as 'ICT for learning' and 'Collaboration'. I also really like using 'De Bono's 6 Thinking Hats', to helps students be better focused, and mindfully involved in the learning.
@AmbrumMiss@Sworkit Yes 100% agreed, homework would be a fantastic idea. The great thing about this app is the students can use it in class but at home as well. It would encourage children to be active at home as the activities are fun and engaging and in society today kids LOVE using technology.
This fantastic app created by @Sworkit, is engaging, fun and easy to use. It gets student's wiggling and giggling/ increases their health and wellbeing! Simply set it up on IPads or a SMART board and away the kids go!!! #UoNteach#21stcenturylearning

@Paige_Gabriel1 What a great resource! I really enjoyed reading over the benefits of mindfulness such as improvements in sleep quality and concentration and enhanced wellbeing. I think these benefits say it all, where mindfulness is an important to practice in schools!
@Paige_Gabriel1 @AmbrumMiss I agree! It is really important that students have fun when playing sport, to stay active throughout their lives. After all physical activity is not just good for physical health yet mental, social and psychological health!
The Little Athletics Program for Schools (LAPS) is an educational program that gets young children excited to play #sport and be #active. This is excellent way to encourage young children to want to join Little Athletics outside of school! #UoNTeach

@SophieDryden5 Yes that is right! This #SportsFest event which is ran in Lake Macquarie seems like such a fun day, really opening up to kids how fun sport can be. It is such a great way to get children #active and potentially signing up to stay active within the program.
#Educators and #parents should encourage young children to take part in days like this to show them how fun and enjoyable sport can be, essentially encouraging them to join up for Little Athletics and other sporting teams in the community!

@darcielarkin Yes! I could not have said it any better. There are so many benefits that come from being active, which educators MUST be aware of to further their students success in school and healthy living in the future.
I agree! #PhysicaActivity is vital for good #mentalhealth and #wellbeing. Educators MUST promote the importance of being active for both short-term and long-term health to their students. So get started today with getting your students moving their bodies!!!
#UoNteach#STG3
Move your body and manage your stress😎
Whether it's a gentle stroll or a hard-core workout, being active is a great way to reduce stress. It gives you the chance to clear your mind and refocus while improving your physical and mental wellbeing! 😄

@_danielleryner What a great way to incorporate 21st Century Learning into the classroom. Not to mention how wonderful the video resource itself is. I think this a great video for students to watch to learn about mental health and how it might make an individual feel.
@MissMcCulloch3 What simple but effective ways to reduce power and help the planet we live on. I think these would be great to share with students as an educator to promote sustainable living for the future!
@MissMcCulloch3 This is a great resource! What a great way to incorporate 21st Century Learning. I think it a great idea to give students the opportunity to choose their own event to research, encouraging inquiry based learning!
@kurt_eckmann@ServiceNSW Wow this is amazing! I never knew about this. Thanks for sharing. What a great way to give ALL children the opportunity to be active and enjoy playing sport!!
Little Athletics gives little ones the opportunity to participate in fun and engaging sporting activities regardless of their skill level! If you are an #educator or #parent what better way to encourage your kids to be more active (link below)! #UoNTeach

@darcielarkin@OzHarvest What a great way to show young children how easy it can be to give back to the community. The next goal you have suggested it is a wonderful idea! How good would that be for students to gain insight into growing their own food and then giving it to those in need!
@darcielarkin How good is this! I think introducing strategies for young children on how to manage food waste is vital for a sustainable future. I really like seeing projects like this that schools can implement to help promote sustainable living for young students.
@AmbrumMiss This is great! Thanks for sharing. Having a balanced lunch box is really important for young children to develop healthy eating habits for the future.
