Following our blog below - my colleague John has set the following challenge for teachers. 1 Think about your actions in the first 15 minutes of the day.
- What 'cues' do you send to children that might impact their 'emotional well being'?
- How do the children feel they can be helped into the right emotional frame of mind for learning?
- What ideas do you have. Often the day can start in a very busy way - does that help prepare everyone best for a day of learning?
- Ask children to tell you more about what you do that sends a 'message' that has an impact on their 'emotional well being' (both positive and negative).
