P4B took part in one of their regular sessions of theraplay! They loved the activity of guessing whether they were being stroked by the cotton ball or the pipe cleaner. We love doing our theraplay sessions! 

This week is Children’s Mental Health Week! To celebrate this, we read a story called “emotion potion” from verbal wellbeing. This story taught us the importance of understanding our emotions and how they make us react. It also taught us that sharing how we feel is so important! After having a great discussion about the story, P4B made their very own “emotion potions”! 

P4B had circle time this week. We established a clear rule that you can only talk on our circle when you had stitch in your hands. We began the lesson with a discussion about what makes a good friend. We then talked times that people have been good friends in our class. We then spoke about times that people can be unkind. We acted out different scenarios and how we could handle certain situations better. To finish, we had some mindfulness meditation time.
