A double sided reflection activity to help children reflect (when their mood is right) on incidents which have occurred or events which they could have approached differently. It is a chance for them to reflect and think about their behaviours. This can be useful for children with autism.

This is a supportive tool to help students recognise, show and regulate emotions. They give a language to how the young person is feeling. ‘I am feeling yellow today.’ They also give strategies for trying to overcome their mood as they can be made into a back-to-back flip pad which goes in the students pocket. Two slides have examples of mood scales. However, they need to be individualised to the particular student you are working with (see blank copies). The techniques for overcoming the moods should, ideally, come from the young person with support from the adult. If we write it in their language, they will own the techniques.

This assembly explores why we should put more effort into giving at Christmas rather than writing a list and wanting many gifts. It also investigates giving to charity and random acts of kindness as well as gifts you can make for free.

A presentation on how Parents can become involved in their children’s revision.

This resources looks at how to ‘change the script’ in the classroom. If what we are doing isn’t working, we need to change it. There is a staff activity based on a conversation between the teacher and students and top tips on changing the script.

The Six Rs of revision (RAG, Red, Revise, Review, Repeat, Rest) show the process of how to revise. This works well as either a focused week of year eleven and thirteen assemblies or a cycle of 5 x 20 minute sessions over lesson 1 & 2 (have groups of 15 students split across the year and rotate them across 5 different sessions (we had two of the same session running at once). It gives a structure to their revision and at the same time, keeps it simple as they have enough to learn already. There is an introductory assembly at the start.
