Primary 2.2 have been very lucky to experience a 6 week block of expert football coaching from East Renfrewshire coaches Tommy and Ali.
The children took part in lots of fun activties which helped them to develop ball control, passing, scoring and defending skills.
No strict rules were enforced, it was all about giving it a go! There was also an emphasis on good sportsmanship skills and at the end of each game the children were encouraged to shake hands and thank each other for the game.
Even Mrs Stewart had a great time learning new coaching techniques from the professionsals!
Two of the sessions were outdoors and even in the freezing cold conditions the children gave it their all. Well done 2.2!
A big thank you to Tommy and Ali for all their fantastic input !
Primary 2, I am impressed with how you are Bouncing Back when things are difficult or do not go your way. Keep practising the strategies and talking to each other and remebering to Bounce Back will get easier and easier!
Bounce Back! is an award winning positive education approach to wellbeing, resilience and social-emotional learning for primary school children.
Primary 2.2 have been learning about wellbeing and resilience strategies that they can use at times of upset to encourage positive thinking and mindfulness.
Bad feelings always go away again.
Other people can help you feel better if you talk to them.
Unhelpful thinking makes you feel more upset. Think again.
Nobody is perfect. Mistakes help you learn.
Concentrate on the good things and have a laugh.
Everybody feels sad and worried sometimes, not just you.
Book Week Scotland is taking place from Monday 27 November – Sunday 3 December 2017.
