Overview

Watch & read

Week Four continues to build independence, emotional awareness, creativity, and joyful movement through a vibrant mix of colour exploration, imaginative play, and gratitude. Students begin with Colour Hunt, a fun and energetic scavenger-style activity that strengthens colour recognition while encouraging independence and teamwork as they search for objects around the room. They then shift into gentle emotional reflection with My Happy Place, drawing the places where they feel safe, calm, and joyful, helping children connect to their feelings and express them in a creative, comforting way.

‍

The week then moves into full-body imaginative play with Tour De France Bike Race, an adventure that turns fitness exercises into a playful story, helping students build coordination, stamina, and confidence through movement. To finish the week, students dive into kindness and creativity through Thank You Cards, expressing appreciation for someone special in their lives while practising drawing, writing, and emotional reflection. Together, these experiences strengthen cognitive skills, empathy, physical fitness, and positive emotional expression, all while creating a classroom culture filled with gratitude, creativity, teamwork, and fun.
