The 10 minute daily reflection is for children aged KS2 upwards. If your faced with challenging behaviour, use this resource to help individuals reflect on their emotions and develop empathy for others around them.
This is a Microsoft Form available to duplicate. I use this as a daily check in with my Year 5 students, however, it could be edited to suit any primary/lower secondary age range.
The link to duplicate the form is on page 5 of the pdf.
This Self Awareness Activity allows students to think about how their feelings contribute to their own actions, and how this may affect the people around them. This indirectly links to the following objectives from the Citizenship Programme of Study:
KS3
- the ways in which citizens work together to improve their communities
KS4
- the different ways in which a citizen can contribute to the improvement of their community
However most importantly, it equips students with the skills to effectively manage their feelings and emotions. Which in turn will allow them to contribute to the betterment of their community, and become successful and happy members of society.
This is a resource to use on the first day back with your UKS2 learners.

This Zones of Regulation Display can be used with classes of any age to encourage regular emotional check-ins. This encourages learners to develop a greater understanding of their own emotions and develop compassion and empathy in their interactions with others.
This resource includes a Canva link on the last page, so purchasers are able to make a copy and add/delete rows as required. You can use velcro tape to make the display interactive (please see the image attached).
