We discussed ways to help us keep calm, relaxed and happy.  We used these strategies in class:

We gave each other compliments!

Here are some of our comments:

We are kind.
We give good cuddles.

We listen to our friends.
We make people laugh and smile.
We play with friends.
We look after everyone.

 

We drew using the Youtube tutorials, did some Cosmic Kids Yoga and read the story ‘The Dot’ discussing resilience and how we should not give up!
