Why Is My Mind And Body Important?

Why is your mind and brain so important? your mind is important because it carries all your good thoughts. Your body helps you to do your work as your body works it helps you to do things more often.

As you are thinking of something your mind helps you think faster. Your mind is very important because if you didn’t know how to think how hard would it be to do work. Your mind is something important when you think you click right away and you would know what to do next.

Such as your body it is really different. As we learnt at Life Ed with Lyn we know that many drugs can affect your brain and body. Your body is the most important thing in your body.

Your bones are important too but your brain is really important. As your body works it would be easier to work. Such as alcohol and drugs those are mostly likely to cause death and problems to your brain and to your body.

How does your mind work? well your mind works the same as how my mind works. As my brain sends messages to my mind I think really fast. But if you take drugs your brain and body can start getting slower and slower and it would be really hard for you to think.

What would you do if you couldn’t think? if you couldn’t think you won’t be able to go to work,study for a test, you won’t even know how to spell your own name. Your mind is very important because if you didn’t have a mind you won’t be able to do your favorite things.

Life Ed

Today was our last day for Life Ed With Lyn. We have been learning about drugs and alcohol. Lyn has been showing us different videos of people that have use drugs and alcohol before.

Many teenagers like Rita use drugs and alcohol to fit in. Rita started at the age of 12 she wanted to start drugs because she wanted to be cool. As Rita started to take more drugs and alcohol she started to get addicted.

James started using drugs at the age of 13. His friends keeps on asking do you want drugs he said no. One day he took drugs he took marijuana he started to get use to it and keep on taking it every day.

There was different kind of kinds of people that had reason. Most of the teenagers had the same reason. They all wanted to fit in as James and Rita started to take drugs they started to get addicted to the drugs.

Immersion Assembly

When we walked into assembly on the first day of term, we saw three bikes. Then along came Mr Jacobsen with another bike. Then there was four. Ms Tito was on her own bike on the stage.

This term our theme is called ‘Game On’. Every term we always have a theme. We are learning about the Commonwealth games. At the Commonwealth games there are many sports like boxing, rugby sevens, gymnastics and also long jump.

At our immersion assembly we had different teams that did different things about Game On. Team four did a mash potato challenge. They had to build something with the mash potato when they finished the referee had to pick which one was the best.

Team 2 was really funny because their one was about all different sports. They did running, shot put and javelin. Their one was really funny. I like watching it because it was cool for us to watch.

When our assembly was finished I was ready to learn.
