We began by exploring feelings.
We discussed different sorts of feelings, what makes us feel happy, sad, excited, anxious etc.
We then played an interactive game on the whiteboard and discussed the feelings it produced.

We then played a practical game involving our feelings.
Each of us wrote a word to describe a feeling on a small piece of paper. These words were then placed in a hat. Each of us then took a feeling from the hat. This was our feeling for the game. We rotated in concentric circles to find a partner and than had to mime our 'feeling' through everyday activities, such as getting up in the morning and eating dinner. Our partner had to guess how we were feeling.
Most of us managed to guess our partners feelings.
Next time we will discuss what makes us feel this way, and try to design a dream school where there are no negative feelings.
Our lesson today involved THINKING and COMMUNICATION SKILLS.We are trying to improve our SOCIAL and EMOTIONAL learning: EMPATHY, SELF-AWARENESS, SOCIAL SKILLS and MOTIVATION.
i love how they act their feelings from RhysDaBom
