Life Education

(Health and PE)

Room 2 had a great first session in the Life Education van where we were learning all about 

'Individual identities and why my identity is important.'

Have a look at the photos with your son/daughter and ask them to talk you through what they were doing in each photo!  We took part in some really interesting activities.

THE POWER OF WORDS

Attached below is an example of just 

how powerful words can be.  

The children, with teacher support, took a piece 

of writing and changed the adjectives to 

change the mood of the writing.  

This was very powerful for everyone and 

we hope you enjoy seeing it too!

WAL – to identify and use adjectives for effect.

SCARY

As I walked through the terrifying forest, I could see the deadly sun up above. The dark sky was full of shadowy clouds and I could hear screeching birds singing threatening songs. The shivering leaves hung onto the deformed branches and I could feel the hungry, sucking ground beneath my feet. The bloodthirsty sun made me feel petrified and I could feel the howling wind on my face. An evil bird circled above and the skeletal trees surrounded me. I could hear the screaming stream as it made its way down from the volcanic hills and the crackling pebbles as they moved in the steaming water.

SAD

As I walked through the obsidian forest, I could see the darkening sun up above. The grey sky was full of weeping clouds and I could hear depressed birds singing dull songs. The crumpled leaves hung onto the drooping branches and I could feel the dark brown ground beneath my feet. The sad sun made me feel chilled and I could feel the whining wind on my face. A lonely bird circled above and the frowning trees surrounded me. I could hear the sobbing stream as it made its way down from the miserable hills and the crying pebbles as they moved in the dirty water.

HAPPY

As I walked through the emerald forest, I could see the smiling sun up above. The blue sky was full of fluffy clouds and I could hear cheerful birds singing happy songs. The delicate leaves hung onto the strong branches and I could feel the soft, mossy ground beneath my feet. The bright sun made me feel warm and I could feel the playful wind on my face. A cheeky bird circled above and the friendly trees surrounded me. I could hear the babbling stream as it made its way down from the colourful hills and the chattering pebbles as they moved in the clear water.
