The children in Year 5 have enjoyed doing some activities this week for Children's Mental Health Week
LOOK HOW WE HAVE CHANGED
For our first activity, we enjoyed reading a book we read when we were younge - The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We discussed how the caterdillarr changed and this led us on to discuss all the changes we have been through since we were born. We focussed on all the amazing things that we have learned to do over the years and can do now and then we drew or wrote them inside a butterfly to show how much we have changed and grown.
REACH FOR THE STARS
For our second activity, we talked about having goals - things we want to work towards and how we often need to take small steps towards reaching these goals. We then wrote them inside a star. We came up with great goals such as:
I will travel the world.
I will stay calm.
I will open up more.
I will learn to tell the time.
I will be a Japanese teacher.
i will be nice to my sister.
We enjoyed sharing our goals and reflecting on what we could do to help us to achieve them.
