Topic:
LESSON 1- Negative and positive thoughts
What are thoughts?
What are feelings?
What are behaviours?
How do these all link together?
How do these all influence one another?
During the last two months, the global pandemic has meant that there have been many unprecedented changes that have occurred in your life.
Positive and negative thought
Can you think about what do you feel is positive during this time?
Can you think about what you feel is negative during this time?
Think about the negative thoughts that we have just shared and look at the feeling’s words below.
Think carefully about one of the negative thoughts and decide which feelings word best describes how you would feel if you had that negative thought (Lesson 1 resource)
Write some ideas on a mind map

Task:
LESSON 2- Cognitive triangle
What does cognitive mean?
The word cognitive means to do with the process of thinking and other mental processes – that means things we do with our minds.
Our cognitive functioning includes memory, judgement, reasoning and emotional responses.
Thoughts, feelings and behaviours all link together.
Look at resource two as an example of the cognitive triangle (Lesson 2 resource)
Can you now create one of your own?
Tuesday
Topic:
Lesson 3- The chain reaction
The way we think affects the way we feel and the way we feel affects the way we act,
or behave.
Our behaviour reinforces the way we think and so the chain goes on and on.
Today, you are going to make a paper chain, showing a typical negative thought that you have had, how it makes you feel and how you then react.
Complete the paper chain (see lesson 3 resource)
Maths:

Task:
Lesson 4- The chain reaction
Once you have made a negative paper chain, you are going to make a positive one, on the same subject.
Think about how you could change the initial thought from a negative one to a positive one.
Consider how you would then feel differently and how you would behave differently.
KEY: ALWAYS THINK ABOUT HOW WE CAN CHANGE A NEGATIVE THOGHT INTO A POSITIVE THOUGHT.

Mindfulness allows us to focus on what we have in our lives and be grateful. We often get swept up with wanting what we do not have, which leads to feelings of unhappiness. However, being thankful for all we have can make us feel much happier.
