We're so excited to have you back and can't wait to see what this year brings for us at Granby! Our first topic will be Hola Mexico, starting next week. Please look out for our sub page to see what we've been up to!
In Y6, we have been discussing what 'screen time' is and the dangers of too much of this. We explored activities we like to do that involve a device of some sort and also things we like to do which do not involve a screen.
We looked at different signs that you have spent too long looking at a screen, including those from our own bodies and those from the world around us:
Signs from our bodies: | Signs from the world around us: |
sore eyes | it's gone dark outside |
headache | battery runs low |
stiff neck | device gets hot |
hunger/thirst | loss of time |
We then discussed ways to address this and how to balance our screen time with other activities-such as meeting up with friends, having a break and grabbing a drink/snack and reading a book!
