After all the Sports Day activities yesterday, we took things a bit easier today!
We made smoothies this morning. Our smoothie bar was very well stocked with lots of different kinds of fruit and fruit juices. We made two different smoothies – we decided together what fruit we would like to put in each. Most of us enjoyed drinking them 🙂 We definitely enjoyed mashing them all up in the blender.
We did some mindfulness breathing exercises today too, it was difficult to switch off and just think completely about our breathing but we gave it a good go. We had some good discussion about why it is good to give your brain a rest sometimes and relax and we also thought about our breathing in different situations and how it can become quicker if we are scared or worried and how slowing our breathing down can help.
This afternoon we had some relaxing music on and we did some mindfulness colouring, it was very quiet in the classroom – the quietest it’s ever been I think! A lovely thing to do.
What a busy week we’ve had, the children and I have really enjoyed thinking about our health and trying new things.
