 Positive thinking diary


For this task please have a look at your "positive thinking diary"
and reflect on the day you have had, and write down something positive that has happened. You might want to save this for a bit later though.

Colouring activity.

Today I have put some sheets on for you to colour for your mindfulness colouring activity. It's not alway easy to print out though so instead you could take your pencil for a walk again like yesterday (by the end of this week you will have the fittest pencil in the world!) The end of my pencil broke while I was drawing yesterday, I tried to carry on but it was pointless.

Below are some different videos that can help you to be calm and relaxed, or help you work on your concentration Each one is only short and they deal with different emotions. Have a look at them and see if you think they could help you when you are frustrated or worried about something.

Outside activities

It has been lovely to be able to get outside so much this week, even if the weather has been a bit wet. Below are some of our Forest School activities that you can do. If you haven't done one already then choose one or two from the slideshow below to do today. My favourite is the cloud watching one. I love sitting in the garden and trying to guess what the clouds could be. My friend told me a joke about a cloud but I didn't get it, it just went over my head.

Art competition

Don't forget you can still enter the art competition. See yesterday's page for more information.

 
You are amazing!

Over lockdown you have all been amazing and kept working really hard, and it has not always been easy not being able to see friends and family as much as we would have wanted to. You have all coped amazingly well though, and below are some activities to help you reflect on how well you have done. 

To finish of with we have a positive thinking excercise to do to think about all of the things that we are good at. Below there are two sheets for you to look at. You don't have to copy the sheets, maybe you could draw your own design in the middle instead. You could even do one for a family member and let them know all of the things that you think are amazing about them.

Reading task:   


Reading is wonderful for Mindfulness. Therefore, I would still like you to read for 30 minutes each day. 

Ideally, I would like you to read your school reading book or a book that is similar in difficulty. However, if you choose to read something else then that's ok too. As long as you're reading, I'm happy!

Learning Project - to be done throughout the week 

 

This project this week aims to provide opportunities for your child to learn more about celebrations. Learning may focus and different types of celebrations that take place and who may celebrate them. It could look at how people celebrate different events differently in other parts of the world. 

 ● Country Celebrations -​ How are birthdays celebrated around the world? Look at ​this website​ to find out information on the celebrations. Maybe there's a particular country your child would like to find out about. Create fact files to show the similarities and differences between the celebrations. 

 ● Build a Brilliant Board Game-​ Task your child to create a board game that focuses on celebrations. Is it going to be a game like Monopoly or Snakes and Ladders? Are they going to need dice? Cards? Characters? Once your child has created the game, can they write a ‘How to Play’ guide too? Test out the game during a family game’s night. What did everybody learn about different celebrations? 

 ● Party Game Fun-​ Why not ask your child to plan their ideal birthday party or celebration event? Who is going to be invited to the event? What food would they like to eat? How will the room be decorated? What entertainment will there be? Play some party games as a family e.g. Musical Statues, Pin the Tail on the Donkey, etc. 

 ● Cherished Memories-​ ​Look through old photos of previous celebrations the family have taken part in. What can your child remember about the event? Discuss why the family celebrates in this way. Do you have any family traditions? Ask your child to draw a detailed sketch of their favourite photograph from the day, if there aren’t any photographs they could do this from memory. Following this, ask your child to write a recount about the day. This could be done in the style of a diary entry or a newspaper report. 

 ● Patron Saints and Saint Days- ​There are four patron saints in the UK: St. George for England, St. Andrew for Scotland, St. Patrick for Northern Ireland, and St. David for Wales. Can your child find out about each saint and why they are still celebrated in the UK? Look ​here​ for some help. Perhaps they could create a timeline of each saint’s life? Or write short information reports on each saint?
