A note from the author:
I have used these resources with my form group from Year 7 - 9 to ensure that not only do I develop a strong pastoral grounding with the students, but also that I build a professional relationship with my form. Some of the resources will need to be tailored / adapted to the needs of your form and your school pastoral policies, however they are a great template to work from.
Included here are a range of different resources. The main ideas are embedded within the two ‘Twilight’ documents as this is from a session I ran on our Pastoral role as form teachers.
Posters / Displays:
- Multiple Intelligence Posters - to instil a sense of acceptance of difference
- A Fingerprint Tree (will need an ink pad) where all students add their fingerprint as a leaf to the tree - to create a bond of loyalty
- Quotes of the Week - to inspire students
- Code of Conduct examples - to help students understand expectations of the school, staff and themselves.
- Roles/Responsibilities Lists with ideas to get the whole form involved.
Activities Ideas:
- A range of ideas in the ‘Twilight’ documents
- Teach a Skill / Run an Activity Forms - student led in form time
- Quiz on school rules and expectations (obviously will need to be adapted)
- Settling in Meetings / Interview Question Sheets
- Caption Competitions
- Desert Island Disks Certificates (students talk about and present extracts of two songs that are important for them)
- Puns and Riddles to keep their mind fresh.
