P1-4 have been learning about ‘growth mindsets’ in their health and wellbeing topic. They are learning to think about what makes them a ‘good learner’ and use these things more often to ‘grow their minds’ and be the best learner they can be. Today we were introduced to ‘Tim the Team Player’.
Mrs Henry conducted a secret experiment on the class!! She mixed everyone up in to groups and let the pupils play tricky word snakes and ladders for 10 minutes. She watched the boys and girls carefully to see if they were being good team players e.g. taking turns, being friendly and kind, helping and supporting others, accepting winning or losing gracefully etc. The class showed lots of these characteristic but also spoke about how they could improve in other team games and group work.
More superheroes will be introduced along the way. Once all 8 are known to the class, we will invite parents, carers and friends in to school to learn more about them and how they can be used at home to support learning too! Information on this will be along soon…
