Well-Being Wananga

In the last two weeks we have looked at Resilience - Emotional Awareness (understanding emotions) and Impulses. I've come to realise that

Impulses- mean your emotional reaction to a situation.

your emotional awareness- is where you can realise when someone is down and that your recognise yourself is going through rough times and going through emotions.

Resilience-Is when you try to adapt with your mental emotions and strive to making your mental health improve.

Being able to control my emotions in different situations avoids causing a massive argument and a rivalry against each other impacting other students in their learning and emotions towards me or others.

Knowing how to react and respond in situations rather than acting on impulses means that you can self control your anger and emotions to affect the other people that are working and could get into others business

The effect that these things have on my Social Well-being (Taha Whanau) are that it could affect your socialising skills which could effect you making friends.

 Water you can’t live without it.

The 5 facts about water-

  1. How can water help us? Drinking Water Helps hold the Balance of Body liquids. Your body is composed of about 60% water. The functions of these bodily fluids include digestion, absorption, circulation, creation of saliva, transportation of nutrients, and maintenance of body temperature Important facts.

How to make salt water into clean water?

Humans cannot drink saline water. But, saline water can be made into freshwater, which is the purpose of this portable, inflatable solar still (it even wraps up into a tiny package). The process is called desalination, and it is being used more and more around the world to provide people with needed freshwater.


How important is water to us?

Your body uses water in all its cells, organs, and tissues to help regulate its temperature and maintain other bodily functions. Because your body loses water through breathing, sweating, and digestion, it's important to rehydrate by drinking fluids and eating foods that contain water.

Inside & Out-Organs

 Organs-

Oesophagus-The oesophagus is the muscular tube that leads from the mouth to the stomach. Swallowed food is massaged down the oesophagus and goes through a weak ring of muscle into the stomach.


Liver-Your liver stores all of your proteins and nutrients, protects the body from disease, and breaks down and helps remove alcohol from the body.


Stomach-The stomach receives food from the esophagus. As food reaches the end of the esophagus.


Small intestine-The small intestine is known as the bowel and absorbs substances and liquids.


Rectum-the final section of the large intestine, terminating at the anus.


Anus-Lets out the solid waste of broken down food.



Large intestine-the caecum, colon, and rectum collectively.
