This week in Year 1 we have discussed children’s mental health and carried out a range of activities to support us. Our theme was all about keeping connected which encourages pupils to consider who they are connected to, and how they feel about these people. We started our RSHE lesson by reading the story the invisible string. We then discussed who in life we feel connected to including family, friends, pets and people who are sadly no longer with us. We then draw a picture of ourselves with string connecting us to all these special people in our lives.
This afternoon in art the children decorated a mini me cut out thinking about how they best represent themselves. We will then join all of our designs together hand in hand to show that despite our differences in appearance we are all connected We hope to share our final design within our local community.
