What is courage?

• Courage means feeling frightened about doing something scary or difficult but being brave and doing it anyway!

• It’s about facing our fears, we all have them.

What are you scared of?

Everyday courage

• When you show ‘everyday courage’ you are being brave.

• This is when you have to do something ordinary but it makes you feel scared.

• Example – doing something new at school when you’re not sure if you can do it.

Courage

• Think of a time when you were scared but still did the brave thing.

• Should we avoid things we’re scared of?

‘Almost Nothing Scares Me!’I wouldn’t be afraid of a lion or a vampire.I would fight a dragon or dinosaur for free.

I wouldn’t run away from an earthquake or volcano.But cockroaches absolutely terrify me!
