scared and safe

Today in primary 2/3 we were learning about the feelings scared and safe. We had lots of discussion about what makes us feel scared and what makes us feel safe. We also discussed different coping strategies we can use when we feel scared.

Here is a snapshot of what the pupils had to say:
