It's Good To Be Me!

We spent our first day back after a well rested half term, celebrating ourselves as individuals.  The day began with us investigating our fingers and thumbs and recognising that each individual has their own prints, unlike anyone else on this world. Using this idea, (and making some mess with the ink!) we created a 'thumbprint self portrait' to show what other qualities make us different to others. This involved things we enjoyed doing, where we come from, what we wear and what we eat, to name a few. Some of us discussed ambitions and things we'd like to improve about ourselves, which led us nicely into the second focus of the day - the power of 'Yet'. 

 After exploring things we feel we'd like to improve on, we discussed in great depth what we can do ourselves to help develop these skills and how our attitude can affect things massively! Within our learning this half term, we have decided to really conquer the idea of a growth mindset and remaining positive when faced with problems which we can't solve...YET!
