Today it was Hello Yellow Day in Year 4.
We know that our mental health is very important and we spoke about what activities we like to do that helps with our mental health. Some of us like to read, play sports or draw in a sketch book.
The most important thing to remember is that if you are ever feeling sad, angry, worried or any other big or tough feelings, always talk to an adult you trust.
We watched a video with the ‘Doodle Boy’ who doodles to help with his mental health. He showed us how to create aliens, food and some interesting monsters, all from drawing simple shapes and adding some detail.
We then got to design our own ‘comfort creature’. We got to practice doodling and then colour in our creatures to make them stand out. This is a creature that has all the features that we find comforting in a person or a thing when we are having tough or big feelings.
What was your favourite part of the activity?
