Lesson: PSHE

In PHSE we have been looking at new goals, dreams and challenges.

Today we are looking at what it means to stretch our thinking or our skills. This usually means trying over again and again, stretching a bit more and a bit more. Often there are obstacles or barriers when we want to achieve a dream or a goal. We must remember to keep going and that it is worth it –  once we’ve earnt it.

Can you answer these questions: 

Do you think the boy wanted the star?

Was it easy for him to get the star?

Did the boy give up?

How did the boy get the star?

Do you think it was worth the wait?

Your task today:

Can you think of a time when you stretched your learning to achieve something new?

This could be, walking, learning to ride a bike, swimming, zipping up your coat on your own, getting dressed, brushing your teeth, using a knife and fork. These weren’t easy at first, but with practise and by stretching your learning, you got there!

Draw a picture of when you stretched your learning.
