Today in our Advisory PSHE we talked about stress. What does this word mean to them? What immediately comes into their heads when they hear that word? What effect does stress have on their bodies? Some of the students reflected on things that make them feel stressed (a couple said they never feel stressed at all…lucky things!!). Next week we will do a session on managing stress and strategies that can help them to do this.
We join forces on a Thursday for these sessions, so it is nice to see them as one group discussing topics and working collaboratively. We have goals to set now, and Ms. Jo was a bit ‘stressed’ that this needs to be done, so Ms. Melodee’s Advisory students buddied up with mine and helped them reflect on a learner profile goal.
