Life Caravan.

Yay! Room 21 has been going to the life caravan. I really enjoyed going to the life caravan because I like to learn more things about our body.  

When we went to the life caravan we met Lynn and Angela. The first thing we did was to get into lines from tallest to shortest  and boys and  girls. When we got in the caravan we saw lots of body parts, pictures and we also saw lots of Harold toys. Angela showed us some pictures of body parts that were sticking onto the wall.

 When Angela turned on the projector we saw some tv programs like the digital tv with the dog in it and the warehouse one. Like “the warehouse, the warehouse, where everybody gets a bargain”. After that we got into groups of 3 and Angela handed out some body parts. My group partners were Senolita and Caroline. We had a stomach. The maori name for stomach was called puku.

Our whole group had to say some things about the stomach. All I had to say was where is your stomach and which side it is on. Caroline had to say the hard bit because she had to read this long as paper which had hard words. Last but not least Senolita had an easy one. She just stood there and waited  till we finished and then she stuck  it onto the wall. Later on when we finished doing our body parts with our partners we started to look at a video. It was about smoking.

Smoking makes your heart go rotten. It can give you cancer. The video was about a girl who was playing netball who made it in the rep team. She had to pick her sister up from school. But her friends said to come with them. But she didn’t know what to do so she had to pick one of them.  She picked her friends. Then they  went to smoke with her friends other friends. Then the teacher came and nearly saw them smoking and then the teacher told them to ‘’go home’’. Luckily she decided not to smoke.

I learnt that smoking and drugs can make your heart and lungs got rotten.
