Product Description

This new book is full of engaging games and activities that will help children to develop the skills and attributes needed for positive behaviour and effective learning. Written by Jenny Mosley and Helen Sonnet, the games support the aims of the DfES' SEAL materials. This comprehensive collection includes games that will help children to explore the five areas highlighted in the SEAL resources: self-awareness, managing feelings, motivation, empathy and social skills. Through exciting activities, children will learn that an effective community is built on co-operation, tolerance and enjoyment. "101 Games for Better Behaviour" will help teachers to contribute to the emotional journey that each individual they teach makes through childhood and in their adult life. It is aimed at Key Stages 1 & 2: (5 to 11 year olds) but with additional use for older special needs children. It helps teachers deliver the Dept for Education's guidance on Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL) for children under 11 years old.

Customer Reviews

Does exactly what it says!
I think this is the better book out of the collection and is pitched correctly for KS2 or older secondary pupils with special needs. I work in a EBD special school and I dip into it for KS3 ideas.

Familiarise yourself with the book before trying to use it in an emergency or last minute situation then you'll get more out of it.

For the cost it's a worthwhile purchase. Some activities need more pupils than my classes have so I often have to adapt activities but it's great for giving you ideas.

A few good ideas
For an experienced practitioner, this book doesn't offer too many solutions that aren't already familiar. I bought this as PSHE coordinator for staff members to refer to and, as such, it is quite popular although not terribly inspiring.
