Learning objective
- To explore mindfulness techniques as a way to manage emotions
Statutory guidance
Pupils should know:
- Simple self-care techniques, including the importance of rest, time spent with friends and family and the benefits of hobbies and interests.
- That mental wellbeing is a normal part of daily life, in the same way as physical health.
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: May need access to the Presentation: Mindfulness to remind them of strategies previously looked at. May need to work in a small group outside the classroom space in order to concentrate on a guided visualisation like the ones in this lesson.
Pupils working at greater depth: Should describe when they would use different relaxation strategies and articulate why.
