SMARTS and Celebrating Achievements
On Friday year 5 took part in the second Brain Awareness Day of the year. This day was all about celebrating the different ways in which we are all SMART!
There are 9 smarts;
Number
Word
Music
Nature
Self
People
Body
2D/3D
Practical
Everybody in the class has their specialisms and their strong points. We completed a number of activities that helped us see our 'cool', 'warm' and 'hot' spots. We then discussed as a class all the different talents we have and looked at how we could improve our 'cool' spots.
Later on in the day year 5 went to Mrs. Bowers and completed some activities to help them become more 2D/3D smart. We created some amazing pieces of artwork which you can see below.
In the afternoon year 5 completed an activity designed to improve their people smart skills. They had to work in groups of 6 (people they wouldn't normally work with) and design a fruit cocktail. They then had to pitch tot he class and we had to vote for our favourite.
We all had great day and learnt a lot about appreciating each others talents.
