CPSHE

WALT: Be assertive 

Most people, at some point, have felt under pressure to do something dangerous or unhealthy. Something that makes them feel uncomfortable, anxious or that they believe is wrong.

Most people overcome this pressure most of the time. They do this by being assertive.

Being assertive means - When someone stands up for themselves but they don’t use force, hurt people or hurt their feelings.

Assertive behaviours include making sure that you: 

• Stand firm
• Speak clearly
• Be friendly and polite
• Stay calm
• Look confident (relaxed body and arms)
• Negotiate
• Repeat your ideas ('stuck cd' technique)
• Relaxed body language
• Make eye contact when you speak
• Walk away if necessary - but as a friend
• Smile
• Don’t get personal

Your task today is to make a being assertive advice poster. Choose some of the things you think are the most important on the list above and then include them in your poster! make it big, bright and bold to help remind you and others to be assertive but to be nice while you're doing it! 

History 

WALT: Order the events of the Greek Empire on a Time line 

To begin with, we are going to order the events of the Greeks on a timeline. The Ancient Greeks were around for a very long time and before Jesus was born. 

All of the years before Jesus was born are called BC or Before Christ. If we count when Jesus was born as the year 0, the further back in time we go, the bigger the number gets. For example: The year before Jesus was born is 1BC (1 Year Before Chris) 10 years before Jesus was born is 10BC. The further back in time you go, the bigger the numbers get. 

When looking at your timeline, you need to begin with the biggest number BC and travel forward in time getting smaller.

When you have finished that, choose one of the events and research it on the internet, taking notes on what happened.
