SPHE:
This week I would like you to look back at your time in 6th class. Write 10 things you enjoyed during the year. We will discuss these on Google classroom on Wednesday.
It also would be a good idea to keep meditating as we’d being doing in class as this will be helpful to you if you are anxious or unsettled at this time.
Here is the link www.otb.ie/ weaving wellbeing and go to Mindfulness Meditations.
Also Bressie has a wellbeing Instagram page which gives tips and ideas of staying healthy in your mind during this time.
Stay safe and I’ll have more work for you all next week !
