We are looking at resilience, in particular self-control.
Kiwi Can says self-control, it's up to me,
Keeping calm with strategies.
Energiser: Paper Scissors Rock War
We had to jump into each hoop with both feet until we met the person from the other team. We had a paper scissors rock war, then the winner continued until they met another person. If you crossed onto the start dot, your team gets the point and another person starts.
We practised mindfulness to calm ourselves down after all the excitement. Slowly we came back together as a group on the mat.
We got into groups of four to solve a problem. We had to sit with our bottom on the floor and our feet flat on the floor. We weren't allowed to use our hands. Our feet needed to stay flat on the floor.
We needed to show self-control by waiting to discuss our ideas without jumping in and doing it. We also had to focus on other people's ideas and not just our own.
We need to recognise when we need to regulate our emotions and calm down. Practice our mindfulness. Then think about how we react.
