SPEAKING ACTIVITY
Say 3 things you are thankful for today!
Say 3 things you are thankful for today!
Instructions:
Sometimes we get stuck in a grumbling rut and need to be reminded to stop and be thankful. Being grateful improves our mood and re-sets our outlook on life too, having a great impact on others at the same time.
Maybe the whole family or class could take turns to list all that they're grateful for today.
