Personal and Social Capability 

CURRICULUM FOCUS

We are learning to recognise and recall positive emotions.

 


ACTIVITIES YOU CAN DO AT HOME TO SUPPORT YOUR CHILD'S LEARNING

Emotions Journal:

  • Provide the child with a notebook or journal.
  • Encourage them to draw or write about moments in their day that made them happy or that they felt positive emotions.
  • They can use different colours to represent different feelings, or even include stickers and drawings.
  • Regularly revisit the journal to reflect on these happy moments, discussing how they felt during those times.

 

Happiness Jar:

  • Give the child a jar or container and some small pieces of paper.
  • Each time something positive or enjoyable happens, have them write or draw it on a piece of paper and place it in the jar.
  • When they need a mood boost, they can pull out a note from the jar to remember a happy moment.
