TRY-athlonED September

Resources:

Various!

What to do:

Inspired by this Cancer Research UK Tv Advert… I began to think what can I do… (As I am Muslim, I do not drink Alcohol.)


So I challenge you educators to TRY-ATHLON.

In September you must try the following things…12 in total! 4 School weeks in September- 3 a week. 

You can do them in any order you want!

If/when you complete your try-athlon, then maybe write a blog post/send a tweet and copy this post into it? Use the hashtag #TryathlonED
