Body language activities based on the story ‘Harrison Spader, Personal Space Invader’ by Christianne Jones (online readaloud linked).
I used this story and resource with a child who was giving over-exhuberant hugs to his peers and teachers, without reading the body language of others. This story and the illustrations made sense to him and he enjoyed discussing the body language shown.
13 picture cards for children to sort into ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ body language. This brought up lots of discussion from my pupils about facial expression, subtle leans away from an unwanted hug and rigid postures.
