How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Channels are there and in place now so we hope they will be comfortable enough to come forward when they need to. We are perfectly set up and relationships and trust are looking good... time will tell.

“What an interesting few months it has been!!! The kit was a fantastic resource which was perfect for helping the children to settle back into life post lockdown. We had some very anxious kids and the activities were perfect for opening up discussions about their worries, support people, actions and reactions. We worked closely with home and parent feedback was also very positive and they liked what we were doing for their children. We have done mana baskets and talked about filling each others baskets last year so the charging station was a nice follow on from that activity. The other task that we really liked and use all the time is the one about things that we can and cannot control. With interesting and uncertain times still ahead of us, we will continue to recap and extend learning on the resilience theme for some time yet. Thank you for all your amazing resources and the work that goes into producing them.”

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? I wasn't always checking the tokens and students didn't fill in the paper notes. However, students happy to talk as we do circle time. They lost interest in the charging station.

“Linked in well with our school resource, 'Bounce Back'. Found the school kit website particularly helpful to support what we were doing. COVID did kind of push it back, but got back on it on return as linked in with the emotions work we were doing.”

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? The Charging Station

How have the components within the kit helped develop your student self-confidence? We enjoyed the work around what you see on the outside and how people may feel different to how others see them. We had good discussions and the students liked having the journal. Even with clear instructions some struggled with filling in parts.

How have the components of the kit helped develop Student-Teacher communication? Please see above. The red note for the teacher to read was used and surprised me about the frustrations a couple of students had with each other.

“The kit had a very strong message. The students were intrigued by the wall display but it was hard to create an organic use of it compared to instructing them to read a card. The discs to slot into the box were wonderful and gave a quick way for students to self reflect. It took quite a bit of thinking and reading to understand the process to work through I ended up making a slide show with links from the teachers guide and the site to view portraits.”

“The children enjoyed the journal and initially the tokens. I liked using the task cards for a daily discussion. I teach Year 8s and I added some information of my own to make some of the tasks a bit more sophisticated. The kid's particularly enjoyed the discussion and research about their names. (The photos are of the kids finding out about names).”
