Today the children in Year 1 and 2 have been learning about learning. We talked about what we already know about our brain and neurons and how we can be good learners. The children know that we learn best when we are happy and calm. Crucially, they know some strategies to help them to calm down in ties of stress. They know that perseverance, hard work and good team work can help us to learn. Listening carefully, looking for clues or other things that may help us to solve problems are also important. They were then given the opportunity to put this into practice in a team task. The children had to get all their team across the swamp with limited resources. They did a fantastic job. The ability of our children to work in a team is improving fast. This is a valuable skill for the future.
