Mindfulness
Mindfulness focuses on paying attention to the present moment (thoughts and feelings) as well as the world around you. This can improve mental wellbeing. The image below describes how to carry out a calming mindfulness activity.
Spelling Quiz
The weekly spelling quiz is a an opportunity to see which words your child can spell independently.
The spelling quiz should focus on the spelling words that were given out last Wednesday that match your child's ability (please see last Wednesday's home learning page for the spellings).
The spelling quiz is carried out by the adult saying the word aloud and then putting it into context (e.g. the word to spell is 'plate' Can you put your plate in the sink?)
The child would write the word plate then await the next word.

PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education)
Our topic for this half term is Going for Goals. In today's session we are going to focus on exploring how to reach our goals even when it gets frustrating, boring or we begin to feel less resilient.
Task 1:
Do you know what these words mean? Are they are the same feeling?
Frustrated
Bored
Upset
Let's research what the words mean. You could ask an adult what these words mean or watch the video below.

How do you think Miss Daley is feeling about reaching her goal now? What could she do to still reach her goal? Do you think she will give up?
Task 3:
Sometimes when we try to reach a goal we might feel frustrated, bored or upset. Let's think of some ways to stay resilient to reach our goal. Can you create a poster about how to overcome frustration and reach our goals?
Here are some ideas for your poster...
• Keep the goal in mind – see the big picture
• Say encouraging things to yourself
• Imagine the end result
• Set yourself a reward for completing the task
• Break down the task and promise yourself a reward for completing each part of the task
• Have a break, do something completely different, sleep on it, walk around
• Ask others for help
