Smile, it’s Summer
Scientists have discovered that colours can make us feel certain emotions:
- White makes us feel cold.
- Red makes us feel warm or angry.
- Blue makes us feel cool or peaceful.
- Orange makes us feel warm or happy.
- Green makes us feel calm and peaceful.
- Black makes us feel sad.
- Yellow makes us feel happy and full of laughter.
When the sun comes out, people often say that they feel happier. Whatever the weather is like, though, we can all make people feel happy by the way we look at them. An unknown poet said, ‘There are hundreds of languages around the world, but a smile speaks them all.’ In other words, even if we can’t speak someone’s language, we can still let them know that we care by ‘speaking’ to them with a smile.
Think about people who make you happy. Think about their faces. When you think about them, do they look sad, angry or happy? If they make us happy, they will probably be smiling in our thoughts.
How does it make you feel if someone looks angry? How does it make you feel when someone smiles at you?
Today, why not decide to smile at people so that you can bring sunshine to their lives and make them feel happy? Remember: ‘There are hundreds of languages around the world, but a smile speaks them all.’
Dear God,
Thank you for all the people who bring me happiness.
I think especially of… (pause for the children to fill in the names).
Please help me to bring happiness to others, too.
Thank you that I can create happiness by something as simple as a smile.
Amen.
Have a great weekend everyone! Don’t forget from Monday we will be using the new ‘Discussion’ tool on our school website. This will allow you to share your lovely work with me and ask me any questions. I will attach the ‘Pupil Guide’ which will tell you how to use this tool.
Best wishes from Mrs Downing, Mrs Whittingham & Mr Beswick
