All the printables for this week, neatly named, in one folder.
Week One focuses on energising students through playful, movement-rich activities that build coordination, confidence, and social connection. Across the week, students participate in fast-paced physical games, imagination-driven movement tasks, and reflective kindness activities that nurture both their bodies and minds. Through activities such as Happy Face Mean Face and Old MacDonald Had a Fitness Farm, students practise reacting quickly, synchronising with partners, expressing emotions through movement, and using their imaginations to bring stories to life. This combination of fitness and creativity creates a fun, engaging classroom atmosphere where students feel excited, energised, and ready to learn.
Alongside physical engagement, Week One also develops students’ emotional awareness and gratitude. Through My Kindness Journal and Gratitude on Display, students reflect on acts of kindness, express gratitude in creative ways, and build empathy by listening to one another. These activities help students recognise the importance of kindness, understand how their actions affect others, and celebrate the positive experiences in their lives. Altogether, the week blends movement, reflection, creativity, and connection to foster a warm, supportive, and joyful learning environment.
