Overview
Week Thirteen invites students into a gentle and imaginative journey where they learn to understand, express, and celebrate their emotions with courage. Through playful activities like the Feelings Puppet Show and My Feelings Face, students explore what it means to share their feelings openly and creatively. These experiences help them build emotional awareness, confidence, and the vocabulary needed to express what’s happening inside in a safe and supportive way.
This week also encourages calm reflection and connection, with activities such as Soft Stretch Circle and Thank You Cards for Helpers guiding students to practise self-kindness, mindfulness, and gratitude. Just like the Playful Astronaut’s discoveries on Venus, students learn that vulnerability is not a weakness, but a powerful bridge to understanding and caring for one another. Week Thirteen strengthens emotional resilience while nurturing a warm classroom community built on empathy, honesty, and trust.
