Dr. Martin Seligman, the father of positive psychology, describes that to understand students’ and teachers’ wellbeing, it’s like looking at the dashboard of a car. No single gauge tells you how well the car is running. It’s a combination of all of the gauges. The Learning Curve Planners are that dashboard, which provide an array of evidence based activities, which combine to generate positive emotions to build students’ and teachers’ wellbeing. The Planner activities focus on developing all elements of PERMAH. All supported by our online wellbeing program www.learningcurve.com.au

Wellbeing Learning Intention: by understanding that the best way to build your wellbeing is through feeling positive emotions often, you will be more aware to look for opportunities to experience joy, gratitude, humour, love, being hopeful and showing interest. When you wake up every morning, think about what you are looking forward to most for the day. Then at night with your family, share things that went well that each of you were grateful for.

This includes practising mindfulness to connect with themselves through colouring in and being grateful for good things in their lives.

LOOKING UP TO LIVE Wellbeing Goal: by turning off your phone to have more face-to-face conversations, you will feel the beauty of human connection. You are hard wired to be at your best when with other people in person, not glued to a screen. The human race only survived in the caveman days by being in tribes to seek food, shelter and safety together. The feel good chemicals, serotonin and oxytocin, were the rewards they felt for working together.

YEAR 6

With a classmate discuss – there are two types of stress, positive and negative. Positive stress, called eustress, is when you feel enthusiastic, excited and full of energy. When are two times this happened for you and three emotions you felt?

Show gratitude for the positive relationships you have with your teachers, because they are the most important factors in your learning and building your best possible self.

POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT

JOURNAL ENTRIES

MINDFULNESS ACTIVITY

relationships and optimism

THINK NOTHING Sit still and close your eyes and focus your mind on thinking about nothing for five minutes. As thoughts come, push them out of your mind to enjoy ‘nothingness’. This can be very difficult. With pratice, it is very worthwhile.

WAYS TO FEEL BETTER My Wellbeing Goal: to add to my Positive Engagement by having ways to feel better when I’m finding things hard. When you feel that you are finding things hard, it is important to have ways to help yourself feel better. There are four main ways you can do this. They are exercising actively, asking trusted adults for help, using self-talk and practising square breathing. Other ways include yoga and listening to music.

Describe the relationship you have with your teachers now. .......................................................................................... .......................................................................................... Teachers are at their best when your class are enthusiastic to be there by showing effort to learn and try new things with them.

ACTIONS

They also value when you see mistakes as learning opportunities and then ask questions to correct them; be thankful for their help. In class listen and think with your teachers to combine your strengths to get the most out of learning. This shows you have a love of learning.

What is one thing I could start doing to feel better when I’m finding things hard?

RESILIENCE BUILDER Coping strategies are ways to reduce the strength of your emotions when you are in difficult situations. Positive self-talk is a good one, which is telling yourself in your head that I can and I will overcome this situation, such as, I can and I will ignore that person. Describe a time you have used positive selftalk to calm yourself down.

Think about three good things that happened, no matter how small they were, that you were grateful for this week. What did you do to make them happen and how can you make them happen again?

POSITIVE ENGAGEMENT THE CHANGING BRAIN

Book title:

Wellbeing Bank: to build my Positive Engagement by practising to grow strong brain pathways. After every experience you have your brain rewires itself to create new or strengthen existing brain pathways. This is called neuroplasticity and continues throughout your life. In your brain there are millions of nerve cells called neurons, which process and send electrical messages from neuron to neuron around your body to create your every thought, word and action. Your brain loves looking for patterns and the more you do something, the faster the messages travel and the more automatic they become which is how you create your habits. Deliberately practising any activity and gradually increasing its level of difficulty, will create strong brain pathways in that area. Describe how you currently practise to build stronger brain pathways.

SAINT BARBARA Our school is named after Saint Barbara, who is the patron saint of miners, military, lightning and explosives. Saint Barbara displayed faith and courage in her life, which we believe are important virtues in life and learning. It is through faith in God we have courage. Courage to take risks in learning, courage to strive to achieve, courage to stand up for what is right, courage to seize opportunities to shine.

Enhancing Your Understanding. Many school leaders and teachers know about and talk about resilience, wellbeing and Positive Education perspectives, but are uncertain how to implement what they know. Our workshops and seminars provide the “how” for them. The format is 80% “doing” and practising, and 20% enhancing participants understanding of the underpinning evidence based research. MICK WALSH Mick Walsh has been a leading and innovative Positive Education author, educator and speaker across Australasia and internationally for many years. As a highly experienced former college leader and an avid researcher of positive psychology, he created and authored the Learning Curve Positive Education and Wellbeing program, which is used in numerous schools across the globe. All of the strategies and activities in the program, are underpinned by evidence-based research.

CON MADDEN Having spent years in educational and leadership roles Con knows how schools function at an optimal level. As a school and wellbeing leader he has lead by example, in both articulating and implementing Positive Education Programs with outstanding success; setting a benchmark in supporting and building socialemotional resilience in students, teachers and parents.

ROB STOKOE Director of the Al-Futtaim Education Foundation having recently led Avondale Grammar School in Singapore following sixteen years as Director of JESS, Dubai. With 30 years leadership experience including Primary, Secondary and a 5 year spell with the University of Sunderland it’s fair to say that my career has been varied. I am passionate about great learning and see positive education as an essential ingredient for effective learning and future schools. I am still, listening, learning and sharing, continually hoping to stimulate debate and growth for the most valuable of professions.

JOHN WARD John has dedicated his career to educational leadership and innovative staff professional development and is a passionate leader for teacher and student wellbeing – believing that teacher wellbeing is the foundation for student wellbeing in our schools and training facilities. Currently, as a lecturer and tutor for aspiring studentteachers at Southern Cross University and over the previous 26 years as Deputy Principal then Principal across multiple metropolitan and regional schools in NSW, John has continued to promote evidence-based strategies and vital resources to reduce teacher stress and build resilience and engagement.

Facilitating the establishment of a school and vocational training centre in Haiti, to creating and leading teacher training and other school-based and community initiatives here in Australia and overseas, experience has proven again and again to Cheryl, the importance of practical, realistic, wellbeing training for teachers.

ROB HANLON Rob has worked in numerous educational settings over a varied and diverse career.
