Description
Book SynopsisBehaving Together provides teachers with frameworks and processes to help them identify, understand and support the issues children bring to the classroom. Using a clear five step formula, the book explores the perspectives of children, to guide teachers as they support them within the school environment.
The book explores the nature of emotional health and well-being and the real implications of this on the way children are seen to act within the school. Rather than punishing unwanted behaviour, the book begins with the assumption that behaviour is our innate form of communication, that should be supported rather than controlled. It recognises the network of relationships within a schoolâs community and provides helpful resources to support a childâs inclusion in school life, including:
â
Case studies highlighting the potential complexities of childrenâs lives
â
Perspectives on a range of educational contexts, including Pupil
