Kiwi Can Reflection

LI: To include and engage others by being sensitive to their feelings.  This week was our first session of Kiwi Can with Mrs Mac and Ms. Grace. The theme for this term was positive relationships, fairness, and Fairplay. We started with an energizer, called Change Places. For this activity, Ms Grace called out some things that we might like and if we liked it, we would change places with a different person. After we did our energizer, we talked about words related to empathy, which were courtesy, common sense, and consideration.  Some examples to show courtesy with words are having manners, being kind, and being polite. Some other examples to show courtesy without words are hand gestures, facial expressions, and body language. To show common sense, you make wise choices and trust your instincts. Some ways to show consideration is thinking about others and how people may feel. Lastly, we talked about some ways to show empathy which are, being kind, supportive and being considerate. After that, we did an activity, where we acted out the positive or negative ways of showing empathy. In our group our play was about someone crying because she was bullied, so we decided to cheer her up.

Kiwi Can

Today for kiwi can our topic is resilience it means coping with challenges and bouncing back basically never giving up. Our theme is self-control which means controlling your actions and not getting distracted by notifications off really not getting distracted by anything. We dod a circle and did the Mexican wave action it was really easy all you needed to do is raise your hands up. The second action we needed to do was a little bit more hard and confusing we had to put our hands crisscrossing each other and why it was mostly confusing is the fact that we did not know what hand to ho first over or under? But then finally we got the hang of it I had a fun time at kiwi can today.
