Learning objective
- To identify strategies to help overcome barriers or manage difficult emotions
- To develop a growth mindset
National curriculum
All schools should make provision for personal, social, health and economic education (PSHE), drawing on good practice.
The PSHE Association Programme of Study recommends pupils are taught:
- H23. to identify what they are good at, what they like and dislike
- H24. how to manage when finding things difficult
Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support: May find the time-limited challenges difficult to cope with. Give them the option to time other children using a stopwatch, if they show signs of becoming agitated.
Pupils working at greater depth: Should explain what a growth mindset is and how it could be applied in different contexts. Should maintain a sense of humour or stay calm throughout the activities.
