Life Skills - Term 1 - Week 10

Reflection is thinking about what we have done and how we can improve. It helps us learn from our experiences. Today, we will talk about our choices, both good and bad, and how they affect ourselves and others. We will also discuss how making healthy choices can lead to better outcomes.

Let's look at a scenario: Imagine you are at a birthday party. There are many treats like cake, chips, and fruit. If you choose to eat fruit instead of too much cake, you are making a healthy choice. We can reflect on how this choice makes us feel and how it helps our bodies.

In pairs, discuss a time when you showed respect to someone. What did you do? How did it make the other person feel? After a few minutes, we will share our stories with the class. This will help us understand how our actions can positively impact others.

Now that we have reflected on our choices, it's time to set a small goal. Think about one thing you want to improve, like being kinder to friends or making healthier food choices. Write your goal on a piece of paper and draw a picture that represents it. We will share our goals with the class at the end of the lesson.
