Well-being and Resilience Tasks

Keys elements to well- being include sleep, diet, exercise and mindfulness. Therefore, some of the tasks below will explore this! The tasks can be completed over the next

two weeks. If you decide to send your work or responses to your class teacher please check for accuracy including punctuation and spellings. Enjoy!

The Importance of Sleep

https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/sleep-and-

tiredness/how-much-sleep-do-kids-need/

https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/sleep-and-

tiredness/healthy-sleep-tips-for-children/

Before looking at the links above, keep a sleep

diary for five days. For example, include how

long you slept each night and give it a rating

out of five.

Explore the links above. Design a poster of

sleeping tips using the advice from the

websites above. Please include clear

information and support your advice with

drawings.

Additional activities:

- Test out your own advice! After another five days,

reflect if any of these tips worked?

Kindness calendar

https://www.redcross.org.uk/get-involved/teaching-

resources/five-activities-of-kindness-and-resilience

Create a kindness calendar. On the website

above, there is a link titled ‘power of kindness

calendar’ for a template or you can create

your own. Over the next two weeks, plan and

record an act of kindness for each day. Acts of

kindness, including kind words and deeds, are

essential to promote our own well- being as

well as those around us!

Additional activity:

- Design three acts of kindness that can be completed

every day! Design a logo/emoji for each one.

For example, give a compliment:

Exercise

Design, make or complete an obstacle

course/ fitness routine.

Additional activities:

-Write a reflection on how the course/routine

challenged you. How does exercise make you feel?

What challenges did you have creating the course?

- Complete a workout ‘PE with Joe Wicks’ which is

available Monday to Friday, on You Tube at 9am. It

may give you some ideas for the exercise task!

-Create or complete a dance routine!

Zentangle

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBwHUKHUdD8

Draw a Zentangle. These are patterns are

unplanned, abstract, black-and-white art made

up of beautiful patterns. According to the

trademarked ‘Zentangle Method’, true

Zentangles are always created on 3.5-inch (8.9

cm) square tiles and are always done in black

ink on white paper but the teachers won’t be

checking this! The process of creating a

Zentangle is considered a form of “artistic

meditation.”

Additional activity:

- Draw or paint something that makes you happy or

relaxes you.

Exploring your diet

https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/eat-well/the-eatwell-

guide/

Explore the eat-well link above and record

what you eat for one day into the following

sections:

Fruit and Vegetables

Starchy foods (carbohydrates)

Dairy

Protein

Unsaturated oils and spreads

High sugar foods

Write a reflection of your diet.

Do you believe it is well-balanced?

Is this normally what you would eat in a day?

Are there any changes you would make?

Are there any food groups that you find hard to eat?

Can this problem be solved?

Additional activity:

-Explore more ways to develop a healthy lifestyle at:

https://www.nhs.uk/change4life

-Make a meal using one of the recipes at:

https://www.nhs.uk/change4life

Resilience

A definition of resilience is ‘the ability to be happy or

successful after something difficult or bad has

happened.’ It is important not to simply just give up!

Social distancing requires resilience! It is not easy!

Record 5 things that you must be resilient to

when social distancing. Explain why it would

be difficult to be resilient and suggest a

solution! Remember the school’s sentence

starters to include instead of ‘I think…’

For example:

Problem: I want to hug my friend.

As far as I am concerned, it would be difficult

because it is how we usually greet each other and it is

a sign of love and friendship. In my opinion, I could

invent an alternative greeting which includes a wave

and thumbs up!

Additional activity:

-Design a cartoon strip where you have overcome a

problem during the lockdown.
