Feel Good Friday

Here we are at another Friday! I hope you all had a great week and have been enjoying the sunshine.

I have titled this post ‘Feel Good Friday’. Fridays can put us in a good mood and make us feel good. But what if we are in a bad mood? When you feel sad, or down, and you have low energy, what do you do to boost your mood? Really think about what helps you elevate your mood. This is a bit different than just what makes you happy. I’m talking about a change in mood.

For example, I could come home tired, stressed, or grumpy and when I put on loud music, my mood changes.

To do – Writing:

#1 What is your go-to for boosting your mood? Explain. (at least 3 sentences)

Choose 1:

A) Here’s a quote I found by someone named Jim Rohn – “Either you run the day or the day runs you” – What do you think he meant by that? Explain

B) Write about a time when you helped someone boost their mood. What did you say? What did you do? How did you know their mood changed?

Math: We are still being told to stay 2 metres or 6 feet away from people not in our immediate families (and maybe a friend or two).

#1 Make a list of all the items you can think of to show what 2 metres looks like. It would be helpful if you had a measuring tape so you could see for yourself how long that is. For example, I saw a picture of someone using a hockey stick to show 2 metres. I’m not sure it is exact but it was a good visual. Get creative, but be reasonable 🙂 Try to come up with at least 5!

#2 Choose one of your items and use it to illustrate people staying 2 metres apart.

#3 If my classroom is 16 metres wide (which it’s not), and I need to space the desks 2 metres apart, how many desks can I put in the classroom? Psst…think repeated addition…or division 🙂

#4 What 3 numbers come next in the pattern:
– 2, 5, 8, ___, ___, ___
– 4, 8, 12, ___, ___, ___
– 10, 21, 32, ___, ___, ___
– 29, 24, 19, ___, ___, ___
*challenge – 3, 7, 15, 31, ___, ___, ___

#5 Time yourself with your 6 timestables. What is your fastest time?

  1. I think the quote means that don’t do what you want to do do what you need to do. I think this because if you do what you want to do you don’t need to do it so the day is controlling you (that is a really weird sentence). Also if you do what you have to do then you are controlling the day because you are doing what you need to do.

  2. Either the day runs you or the day runs you means: you control what happens in the day or you let go the day control you and get you stressed. If you let the day control you then it could ruin your day.

  3. I made a mistake
    Either day runs you or (the day runs you) means
    Mistake
    Correction
    Either the day runs you or the you run the day

  4. I did help someone once. Well once I helped my sister when she got in big trouble. Then I went to talk to my sister. I told her what is wrong then my sister said “I spilled the coffee on the floor.” To make her feel better I did funny stuff and did jokes then we watched Netflix and I saw her happy with no tears for the rest of the day.

  5. I think ” Either run the day or the day runs you” I think that means that it’s either you be in charge of your day or the day runs you meaning you do not have too much time to finish your day and you need to manage time because time runs quickly.

  10. What I think about the.Ether you run the day or the day run’s you

    What I think he was trying to say is that if it was raining and you are angry because it is raining. You are angry because you wanted to play in the sun. That means the day ran you. If you are happy and able to be positive and have fun in the rain then you’ll be happy. You run the day!

    1. Yes. I think it means you are in charge of your mood and your attitude because you have the power to change them.

  11. What is your go-to boost for boosting your mood

    What I do is I listen to music on my beats and draw. It really helps me get through some tough times. In fact I’m dong this right now and I’m listening to my favourite song. Sometimes I do at night time and it helps me sleep. ListenBig to music is calming for me. Sometimes when I’m sleeping I feel like I’m falling when I’m listening to my music and then I hit the ground and.Facing my fears

  12. Writing

    For me one way to boost my mood is playing a game with someone. It’s good to do it if your stressed also if you have to wait for something for a long time it’s good to play a board game with someone like for example Monopoly. Another thing to boost your mood is to have a conversation with someone it could be a family member a friend or even a teacher. I have one more thing you can do to boost your mood going for a walk or just playing outside it’s best to do it on a warm sunny day.

    1. Look at your times Liam! Of course, accuracy is more important than speed but speed is fun 🙂

  14. Writing

    If I am bored or tired I would go outside sit down and smell fresh air.
    If I were sad or mad I would put music on while playing basketball.
    I make hot chocolate for myself and drink it with cookies.

    B. I’m outside it’s recess time I saw my friend and another kid was telling him not so nice words I told my friend to just ignore the kid.
    I know his mood changed because he was having fun with me and my friends.
