Rewards and feeling proud!

To start our PSHE lesson this week we played a game of ‘switch’. The children thought of things they liked and swapped places if they liked them too. We found out that we all like different things but we also had a lot of things in common like loving chocolate cake!

We then discussed the emotion of feeling ‘proud’ and when we might feel this. We discussed how you can feel proud about lots of different things. It could be your work, doing well at a club or even for eating all your lunch! We then shared things we are proud of about ourselves.

“I am proud because I got this trophy at my dance class for trying my best” – William

“I am proud because I worked hard today in English”- Olivia

We then discussed the question ‘Are we only proud of ourselves?’. We talked about how we can be proud of our friends and their achievements. We took the time to tell our friends why we are proud of them. This made everyone feel happy.
