AMERICAN EDITION: This workbook is for teachers, support staff and parents of children with special education needs. It covers strategies that help children with social, emotional or mental health, ASD, ADHD, anxiety and behavior or anger issues and teaches them how to understand and self-regulate their emotions. This workbook is designed to be a support to help you as a SEND and nurture practitioner/parent/teacher and the children you work with to figure out different ways to cope with their anxiety, stress and anger. After all, when a person is drowning it is not the best time to teach them how to swim. The same goes for a child in distress, it is not the best time to teach them how to calm down - Self-regulation needs to be taught during calm moments with lots and lots of practice... And this is exactly what this book does! This book is unique as it contains stories for children about children with SEN and the struggles they encounter in their daily lives. Each story contains an incident - after each story there is a teacher/parent led lesson covering the strategies and techniques that can help, printable lesson plans, activities, worksheets and coloring pages are all included. Children are learning self-regulation strategies through the stories and activities in the book. These strategies and activities help promote good mental health and well-being through various techniques such as breathing exercises, mindfulness, yoga, anger management and many other fun and enjoyable activities. The lovable characters in the book are relatable and show different characteristics children can identify with. Learning healthy coping skills to deal with stress, anger, frustration and anxiety will help children throughout their whole life. The skills taught in this activity and workbook means that children can access a variety of coping strategies to help them in moments of distress. It is a collection of the most useful and effective activities that I have used in my work in SEN, nurture and behavior.
