WHAT I LIKED ABOUT THE DARE PROGRAME

What I liked about the dare programe was the choice box and learning new things about drugs and peer pressure. But some of the work was really hard! The first activity was fun because everyone got to see each others special object .Second of all the unfolding story was hard as.

DARE

What I learnt in dare is you do not smoke or take drugs. This is dangerous. Also you do not go bullying just because you don't
feel good.

I also Iearnt how to play the human knots game. You need to follow instructions and you need to do teamwork to be able to solve the problem.

what I learnt during D.A.R.E.

I learnt what different kind of drugs can do to you,why not to bully and why I'm special. Every activity was fun. but
the most fun thing that happened was the HUMAN KNOT. The human knot is a game where you have an even number of people. You stand around in a circle. With your left hand you grab a persons hand. Now with your right hand grab another hand. And you have to try and untangle yourself. The first time we did it my group co-operated but the second time my group didn't do so well because they were not co-operating very well.

D.A.R.E TO MAKE A CHOICE!

Over the past 5 weeks room 9 have had the privilege of having Constable Hayden in our classroom to teach us proper ways of
resisting peer pressure,how to work together and how to handle bullying.

We watched a few videos for examples of peer pressure then stopped for a discussion break. We then predicted what we thought would be an appropriate way of dealing with it. Next we watched what the consequences would be if they chose a specific choice.

Day after day we would learn something new. Constable Hayden also introduced us to the choice box which is a private way to ask personal questions and they would be read out anonymously and answered. After all the questions were answered Constable Hayden would make sure that the paper the questions were on would be shredded at the police station so that they will never be seen again! Sounds dramatic but it made us happy and less vulnerable to ask deep questions.

This is a photo of Zoe's 2 day old baby chicks. They were born on Sunday night. The chicks are all Bantams and very fluffy. One is called Lucky because he or she got beaten up by a roster and was at deaths door and if my mum hadn't gone out and brought it in it would have not survived. He or she spent the whole day in front of the fire, and the whole night in the hot water cupboard. After awhile Lucky was put out with it's mother to learn to be a chick.
