Combining literacy lessons with wellbeing, this accessible guide, full
of practical lesson plans and photocopiable activities is the ideal
resource for the busy primary school teacher.
The book is divided into five chapters, each one focused on an area that
creates positive foundations for mental health and wellbeing:
relationships, emotional literacy, sense of self, skills for learning
and understanding how our brain effects our learning and our behaviour.
Popular children's books are used to develop a series of lesson plans
that link to the literacy curriculum and include activities that focus
on wellbeing to compliment the literacy work being undertaken.
Using a range of teaching techniques that develop the key areas that
impact mental health and wellbeing, this is the perfect resource for KS2
teachers looking to incorporate wellbeing into the literacy curriculum.
