PHSE – thinking about how we are feeling
It’s been a tough few weeks and you’re all doing an amazing job at home. ♥
Our emotions can be all over the place; some days we’re happy but other days we might feel sad or anxious. We’re all allowed to have all these emotions.
Why don’t you play this game with your family? While you’re playing you can talk about times when you might have felt that emotion or if you’re feeling them now and why.
Game – t-t-253148-emotions-board-game_ver_9
Now that we’re coming to the end of the academic year it’s a good time to think about the future. We all have dreams of what we want to be or how we want people to be.
Have a go at thinking about your dreams and aspirations and complete this dream jar.

Exercise provides many benefits including
