Room 2's Topic Study Evaluations.

Today Room 2 have been evaluating their healthy eating unit of learning. The questions posed were:

  • Did I like my healthy option?
  • What were my favourites and why?
  • What have I learnt from this experience?
We answered on our chromebooks and then videoed each other using Screencastify.
Here is our first completed interview.

Glenville's Healthy Eating Stalls!

What are some of the barriers young people face when trying to eat healthy? Time, cost and healthy options seem less appealing. How can we overcome these issues? Citizens of Glenville decided to see if they could encourage Glenavon students to make healthier choices by selling affordable healthy snacks and lunches this week. They had to create shopping lists using the Countdown online app, stick to a budget and pay back the cost of the products they used. Some students even made a profit!! Well done Glenville your food was delicious and nutritious!
