Calm and Strong Poses

Admin — Thu, 24 May 2018 14:02:59 +0000

These poses have been chosen because of the ease of learning and using them in many situations to help you calm your mind and body. All except one are standing poses so they can easily be used in the classroom, on the play ground, at home, on the beach, whenever you need to calm and centre yourself. These are easy poses to learn, instructions on how to teach them are in the Lesson Plans, or you can find instructions online. There are many more that can be added and used to calm the body.

Also available in the Poster Set and as an ePoster.

Compliments Fill our Bucket

Admin — Thu, 24 May 2018 14:01:48 +0000

We can fill each other’s ‘invisible bucket’ of happiness in many ways, giving a compliment is just one of them. Acts of kindness, smiles, hugs, sharing, listening, helping, playing with one another, laughing, saying hello, using people’s names are a few others. When you are kind to others, your bucket is also being filled, being unkind to others ‘dips’ into and empties both buckets. Read ‘Fill a Bucket’ and ‘Have You Filled a Bucket’ by Carol McCloud.

Positive Thought of the Week

Admin — Thu, 24 May 2018 13:55:10 +0000

Use this in your school, classroom or business. Have students or workers come up with positive thoughts to put up each week. Have each student in the class write one and rotate them during the year, or as a school, choose one from each class on a rotating basis.

Some Prep/ Pre-Primary examples: Help someone if they are hurt; Let people play; Make friends with people you don’t know; Share toys.

Senior Primary examples: Don’t be a bully, think of others instead; When you give up, you fail, but when you try again you get another chance to pass; If you believe in yourself, others will believe in you; Stand up to bullying.
