A perfect way to display the Wellbeing Indicators to ensure you and the pupils are reminded of them to allow for effective classroom practice.
Wellbeing (SHANARRI)
Using the GIRFEC principles, the approach to considering children’s wellbeing should be rights-based, strengths-based, holistic and adaptable enough to take account of stage of development and the complexity of each child or young person’s individual life circumstances.
Practitioners and organisations should consider each of the eight wellbeing indicators (SHANARRI) in collaboration, with children, young people and their family.
Safe – growing up in an environment where a child or young person feels secure, nurtured, listened to and enabled to develop to their full potential. This includes freedom from abuse or neglect.
Healthy – having the highest attainable standards of physical and mental health, access to suitable healthcare, and support in learning to make healthy and safe choices.
Achieving – being supported and guided in learning and in the development of skills, confidence and self-esteem, at home, in school and in the community.
Nurtured – growing, developing and being cared for in an environment which provides the physical and emotional security, compassion and warmth necessary for healthy growth and to develop resilience and a positive identity.
Active – having opportunities to take part in activities such as play, recreation and sport, which contribute to healthy growth and development, at home, in school and in the community.
Respected – being involved in and having their voices heard in decisions that affect their life, with support where appropriate.
Responsible – having opportunities and encouragement to play active and responsible roles at home, in school and in the community, and where necessary, having appropriate guidance and supervision.
Included – having help to overcome inequalities and being accepted as part of their family, school and community.

French cards of classroom items. Either stick the French names on the item, create a word game with the English meaning on the back or turn it into a memory game set, where you match the French card to the English translation card. Each French word has the English meaning below it for your convenience.
84 Basic addition and subtraction missing number cards under 20 that I have backed on coloured paper have been so effective with pupils. I have written the answer of each question on the back. They can either write down the answer with a whiteboard marker and check it at the end or practice them verbally with a friend. Another game is to lay out the answer cards and put the question that fits the answer on top. The colours just brighten it up as well, I have chosen to back the answers on a different colour paper as the questions.
Times Tables Cards that I have backed on coloured paper have been so effective with pupils. I have written the answer of each question on the back. They can either write down the answer with a whiteboard marker and check it at the end or practice them verbally with a friend. The colours just brighten it up as well. The children have been so excited to get to their next colour rather than their next times table!
