Best Things This Year List
This sheet can be printed off for each child (but will last all year so it's worth it!) and placed in a place that suits you, for example, in the back of one of their workbooks or altogether in a workbook that is kept in the same place all year and that is easily accessible for the children. They can put names on their individual sheets.
When something good happens, the children can record it throughout the year and reflect on it at the end of the year. I plan to print an A3 size of and do a class version too where we can record everything, starting with - we are all back in school together!
This sheet can be printed off and put into your planner or pinned to your pin board. Choose a colour for each box in the key at the bottom and use this as they key for the rest of the year to track your days and the year overall.
The purpose? As you collate the data, you can begin to log which kind of days you are having the most. For example, if the 'stressful' colour is occurring too much, then perhaps it's time to do something to improve your wellbeing at work.
