Kiwi Can

Last week we talked about feelings and did an anger map to talk about how we deal with that emotion. 

This week we are talking about unmanaged emotions. Everybody has emotions and that's ok, but we need to be able to manage those emotions.

KiwiCan says...I have emotions and that's okay, when I deal with them, in a positive way. 

We played "Switch".  Somebody stands st each of the 5 cones. When you hear the word switch, you have to try and get to one of the four orange cones (not the yellow cone in the middle) if it's close, we do paper scissors rock. If you don't make it to an orange cone, you sit down and watch. The new person always starts at the yellow cone.

It was really frustrating and some of us were finding ourselves in the red zone. We were under a bit of pressure.

For our next activity, we had to complete a puzzle. The timer wouldn't stop until 5 puzzles are completed.
Some of our pieces were missing... and we had extras of others! We needed to go and ask other groups for the missing piece. It took us 3mins 59secs to complete all 5 puzzles. Ngakaunui did it in  3mins 25secs. We had to work as a group. Some people had more experience with jigsaw puzzles than others. We needed to show resilience.

It must have been really frustrating without all the puzzle but it's great that the other puzzles from the other group can give you theirs. What was your favourite game? Did you had fun? That will be all from both of us, have a great day be nice to your dad, bye.
