Day 3: PSHE

L.O. To know the importance of energy and enthusiasm.

Last week we looked at our BRIDGE – Discovery. The two dispositions we focused on was Energy and Enthusiasm/

Let’s recap - watch this small clip of the amazing sea creatures David Attenborough has explored and discovered. Remember, it did not take one day for him to explore all the creatures, it takes time and long observations to explore the sea. Do you think he became bored and left his discovery half way?

Now it’s time to reflect to our own life.

Write 2 ways you have been energetic and enthusiastic to discover new things during our time in lockdown at home. (If you haven’t, think about ways you can do over the next few weeks).

Day 4: RE – LO: Who influences our lives?

Influence. What does this mean? Use Google to find a definition of the word. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Every day, many people around the world including our homes, influence us. Heroes from movies influence us to help people and save the world. Explorers influence us to explore everything. An athletic runner influences us to stay fit and practise what we love. Our family members influence us daily, e.g. Mums influences us on how to take care of someone we love and how to make the right decision.
