9th July- Thursday

It was lovely speaking to you all yesterday! 

I hope you are following our web site and excited to find out what Handford Hall will be doing in the next week. This week is the last week of our online learning. Next week's learning will be all about Sports Week!

1. Complete a Crossword
• Complete the Minibeast Crossword. Read the clues and write your answers in the crossword grid.
• Choose either the Pet Crossword or the Transport Crossword and complete it.
You could challenge yourself to complete both!

We will start our lesson with a calm me time. Sit on a chair and place your feet on the floor.
Does your mind feel calm and ready to learn?

Today we will explore how to deal with challenges and changes.

How do you feel about the changes in that have been happening  in your life?

What are the unknowns?

What can the we do about the unknowns?

Think about what has changed in the last couple of years. It could be a like/dislike, something new they’ve learnt, moving house or making a new friend.

Now think about how school has changed because of the Covid-19 pandemic. It is very important to remember however we feel about this, it’s OK to have those feelings. How we react to these changes and what they make us want to do are more important than the feelings themselves.

Write down and share changes which might happen in the following year, thinking carefully about what they expect and what might still be unknown.

Remember sometimes not even adults have all of the answers at the moment! 

Talk with a grown up and think about some practical advice about how to manage your feelings about the changes.

Here are some words to help you share your feelings
