Positive Living

Week 6: Opportunities to Appreciate 

This week, students will be learning the skills required to acknowledge daily highlights and to build a positive focus in everyday life. 

 

When children are guided to look for, acknowledge and appreciate the positive aspects in each day, their ability to perceive highlights improves and they begin to experience more highlights, experience more fulfillment and share more highlights of their own with others.

 

Some things to do at home: 

  • Encourage your children to think of people in their lives they could make a positive comment to and thereby giving the other person a highlight moment.
  • Encourage your family to share one thing you love, appreciate, value or respect about each other or appreciate about your family, friends, teacher etc.

School Highlight: EP

Highlights are happy things you see and do and happy times you share with others.

Highlights help you feel good!

Everyday EP end their day with an afternoon circle and they all share a highlight. Everyday we each have a different response, from learning something new, participating in our favourite subject to playing with our friends outside at recess and lunch.

We as a class could not pick just one highlight to share with the community, so we shared a collection.
