Yesterday, Joy and Mellow found themselves in a situation that made them feel angry. P3P focused on the red cog to identify body sensations, while P3H used the 5-cog model. P3 could relate to Joy's situation today and gave examples from their own experiences! @EmotionWorksCIC

Joy and Mellow found themselves in a situation that made them feel sad. P3P focused on the green Cog to identify behaviours, while P3H used the 5-cog model. Luckily, P3 all recieved letters from Santa today, so their letters made it to the North Pole, phew! @EmotionWorksCIC

The Hive learners used The Snowman by Raymond Briggs to explore emotions and associated triggers, behaviours, and regulation strategies. A Hive learner is a successful learner. @EmotionWorksCIC #LochsidePS

Each cohort brainstormed words that related to emotion words, triggers, behaviours, body sensations, regulation strategies, intensity and influences all relating to the advert clip. Pictures were used to prompt learning discussions. @EmotionWorksCIC

Last week Joy the Elf and Mellow the Penguin arrived in P3. Joy will help us learn about our emotions at Christmas and Mellow will help us learn about our emotions during winter. They left a worksheet to recap the 5-cog model and to meet the Cogmas characters. @EmotionWorksCIC

One Cog at a Time -The Hive learners have concluded their deep dive into worry by exploring, blue cog, regulation strategies. A Little Spot of Worry by @imnotascribble Diane Alber was an excellent starting point. We are effective contributors. @EmotionWorksCIC #LochsidePS

Inspired by @WoodlandsCnauld P7s used all the cogs to consider the Scotland Players before, during and after the World Cup qualifier match 🏴⚽️ They made Emotional Rollercoasters to track the player’s emotions at key points throughout the game! ⚙️🧡💛💚❤️💙🩶💜 @EmotionWorksCIC

The Hive learners have explored their, yellow cog, worry triggers. We found out that lots of us worry about the same things. Next step - regulation strategies. A Lochside learner is an effective contributor. @LochsidePS @EmotionWorksCIC

More emotion focused work from @PittencrieffPS P3s - this time looking at anger 😠
P3 have been discussing anger this week with @EmotionWorksCIC - what triggers us; what we do when we’re angry and what helps. 😡

Broadening the emotion check in to reflect on body sensations aswell as naming emotions 🟠🔴
Circle Time in The Hive always starts with an emotional check in. Recently, our focus has been to recognise and discuss body sensations. Today, we had butterflies, heavy eyes, and a full heart. Creating successful learners. @EmotionWorksCIC @LochsidePS
