For ‘Children’s Mental Health Week’ we participated in a yoga and wellbeing workshop. We also created a positive affirmation poster and a small pocket book with positive comments about ourselves.
For Mental Health Week, 7 Blue have been learning about feelings and emotions and why it is important to look after our Mental Health. We then took part in a yoga workshop where we made yoga poses to match our emotions. We ended the week writing our own Mental Health and Wellbeing acrostic poems.
Over the last few weeks, as part of our LMTW theme Law and Order, Year 4 have been learning about how different countries are run. This week we have been learning about democracy and dictatorships. We split up into ‘Parties’ and wrote our own campaigns in order to govern our Year 4 class. Then we voted for the party we thought would govern our class most effectively and fairly.
As part of Mental Health Week we have been looking at self compassion and that if we don’t take care of ourselves we won’t have any energy to help or take care of others around us. We took part in Yoga and then completed a self compassion mirror where we looked at how amazing we are and why we are so special.
Our current Learning Means The World theme is ‘Ticket To Ride!’ We have been using this throughout our learning. In maths we have looked at numbers, 1 more and 1 less, number bonds, shape and positional language. We have gone on magical train rides telling our friends where we would go and why. We used our sounds and made transport words such as van, bus, truck, sub etc And of course some snowy fun!
See attached the latest from our School Council! They have been very busy and have lots to get organised.
Tickets please! Reception had a fabulous day of hot chocolate, dancing, conga, bingo and so much more!
Today we have been exploring our very snowy outside area! Sledging, snowballs, snow angels, making large ice cubes for an igloo and so much more!
A massive well done to Jessica, on her contribution to charity and fundraising in her own time!
With the help of friends, Jess has organised craft days , ran stalls at the event, held games on the microphone with the DJ’s and came up with lots of ideas to raise money!
Amazingly, a ‘Kids rave’ (organised by Jess) has raised over £1,000!
Money which will all be donated to local charity, Hebburn Helps, and will support many families during financial difficulties, including enabling children waking up to presents on Christmas morning- a true gift of kindness and generosity.
We are beyond proud of the selfless act of kindness you have displayed, and hope you continue to raise money for amazing causes!
Well done Jess!
As part of our theme Come Fly With Me, Asia we have been learning about India. Today we made a delicious curry! We have some budding chefs 😊 The children used their senses to describe how the ingredients in the curry felt, tasted, looked like and most importantly tasted after being cooked! We ate the curry with rice and naan bread and it was delicious. We were blown away by how many children tried it and enjoyed it.
