Children’s mental health week in Year 3

This week, Year 3 have been focussing on children’s mental health week. The theme this year was “Let’s connect” so we have spent this week trying to make connections both with class friends and with ourselves.

Here are just some of the activities we have completed this week

Yoga sessions and mindfulness.

Building up connections with our friends through connect bingo.

Thinking about our emotions through the zones of regulation. In particular we focussed on the red zone, thinking about what makes us tip into that zone, how we react and coping strategies to help.

In english we looked at how our emotions can change throughout a day. We did this through the John Lewis Christmas advert story of excitable Edgar. Here is just some of our amazing writing.
