Healthy Living for Teenagers

 HEALTHY EATING

Eating healthy food is one of the most important factors to living a long and healthy life, eating healthy food improves your energy levels, and even mood. Food charts recomend you eat lots of vegetables and meats containg high amounts of protein and vitamins while cutting out most of the sugary foods.

SLEEP

The recomended amount amout sleep you should get every night is between 8-10 hours, however some people are able to get slightly less sleep then recomended without being tired. Sleep is healthy for you because it rests your mind allowing for it to regenerate energy for the next day and clear out all the 'clutter' or unnecessary information.

EXERCISE

Exercise is great for your body and your mind, physicaly it helps your blood circulate better, lowers the risk of heart and circulatory disseases and for people with type 2 diabetes, it helps your body use the insulin you have left. Mentaly, exercise can help clear your mind from bad thoughts while improving your memory and attention span at the same time.

Boggle (lockdown tasks)

 Today for Hur 1 literacy we had to choose 2 activiys from the list to do, my first task I decided to boggle. For this task we had to find as many words from 'Paralympics' as we could. I managed to get 24 words with a total of 65 points, how well do you think you could do?

 What did this poem make you think about this bully

I think that the bully doesn't seem like a very nice person but at the same time they might have been bullied and might be lonely. I can infer this from the last paragraph

What would I do if I saw this bully

If I saw this person bullying other I would first go up to them and say 'Hi would you like to hang out together', if they said no I would tell a teacher what was happening, if they said yes, I would invite them to sit with me and get to know them and try find out the reason  they were bulling people.

We were also asked to define these words

Assertive - Person who states firmly with authority. 

Passive - Not active, not resisting or fighting. 

Aggressive - Resisting or fighting back against someone .

Boundaries - limitations on where you can go or what you can do .

Conflict - It is where you fight, struggle or disagree with something or someone.
