TeresaI have one child, in 3rd class, who would definitely benefit from understanding cliques...in fact, she would benefit from the whole friendship lesson. Thinking in advance will take some time to learn. I love the alternative solutions because it certainly cultivates independence and allows the child to be part of the solution through their choice.
NiamhI think it is vital that we as teachers recognise the triggers for a child but that the children develop the skills of recognising them themselves. I think the lesson about I statements are so important for children to learn at an early age. Also, I think dealing with other people's anger will be very beneficial in the class I am teaching at the minute.
Aoife2015As teachers we tell students to ask for help with their academic work but I think it is very important to encourage them to ask for help with emotional struggles too which was highlighted in this lesson. I feel it's important to teach children that it's Ok and normal/healthy to feel angry sometimes. We tend to focus on trying to suppress anger rather than teaching how to cope with and express it.
I loved the way it was a short video giving information on how to use the resources supplied. I really enjoyed the course.
