In our session about feelings first, today’s focus feeling was -grateful. We explored different scenarios to understand what grateful looks like in everyday life and discussed related words such as contented, happy, and appreciative. We thought about the kinds of things that might make us feel grateful and how this feeling connects to being peaceful, which is our Christian value this half term.
After a quiet moment of reflecting and connecting, we each wrote a list of five things we are grateful for. We also talked about how, when we are feeling a little down, using positive self-talk and thinking about what we are grateful for can be really helpful and give us a boost of happiness.
Ava -‘ I am grateful for school because some children don’t get to go to school and learn. I love learning!’
C-‘ I am grateful for my new black bike and helmet.’
Thomas-‘ I am grateful because I went to mission out at the weekend.’
Ada-‘ I am grateful for all my family.’
