Managing our feelings and behaviour.

This week at St. John’s we have been focusing on feelings, we started the week with our circle time talking about feelings and how sometimes events can make us sad or happy or nervous. The children helped start our feelings display board, the children liked the idea of using the 5 finger strategy to help them with there feelings. We made emoji stress balls, and made mr men feeling figures, we did our coloured hand prints, and drew our feelings on the windows. We have started to create a new cosy quiet corner, inside this cosy corner has a worry box and when a child is worried or sad about something they will write it down and post it in our worry box. The children’s choice for fun week this week was chocolate tasting where children were blindfolded and had to taste the chocolate using their senses, there was even chilli chocolate!
