we talked about the idea that we all have thoughts but that we are not our thoughts and we can change them as we need to listen to our 'inner cheerleader' and not our 'inner critic'!

In our One Life session this week we continued with our theme of Self Awareness and 'knowing ourselves, to grow ourselves'. We reviewed the story from last week 'Your Mind is like the Sky' before discussing how we all have an inner cheerleader who provides positivity and self belief and an inner critic who can aim to deceive us about ourselves. We spent time knowing them. naming them and drawing them so that in future when we watch our thoughts we can consider which type of thought it is and whether to pay attention to it or not.
This week our topic has been about Families! Thank you to all the families who sent in photos of themselves. They are now proudly displayed in our home corner to make it feel more cosy and just like a real home!
Rainbows have talked about who lives in their house, and which other family members don't live with them, such as grandparents, aunties, uncles and cousins. They have drawn pictures of their family members who live with them and are learning how to draw faces and bodies showing their different features. The Rainbows learning this half term is about "Self Awareness." We have continued to learn the song "Good to be me!"
The objectives this week were to know; How we all have positive and negative thoughts If we use our inner cheerleader, we can listen to the positive ones more! That we are not our thoughts and feelings. We began by recapping the previous stories I Am Enough and A Little Light. Rainbows know that if they are self aware, they can stop the big emotions taking over. They know that we all have positive thoughts and unhelpful thoughts. We can call these our inner cheerleader and inner critic. They drew a picture of what they think their inner cheer leader may look like and talked about all the positive things it might say to them. This half term each class will be undertaking their weekly One life lessons. The focus of the lessons this half term is Self Awareness. Self awareness is the habit of paying attention to your own mind and how it shapes your actions, emotions and values. These are some books shared in classes to help with understanding self awareness and self love. Celebrating and thinking of your inner cheerleader. |
