What is My Friendship Workbook?
Ever wondered how can you teach your child to build social skills?
We’ve written My Friendship Workbook; a creative solution for parents and educators!
This workbook contains a huge range of teaching sheets and worksheets to support children in developing an understanding of friendship and build social skills. This 61 page PDF contains two sections:
- Understanding friendship
- Building Social Skills
Together these two sections help provide child friendly resources and help you support children's social emotional development in a fun way and with ease.
How can this pack help my child?
Navigating friendships can be a rollercoaster! Our learning sheets help you explain social dynamics and teach children social skills such as inclusion and assertive communication.
As a parent and experienced primary school teacher, I know how hard it can be to support children through social dynamics such as passive aggressive behaviours or jealousy. I've used my teaching skills and emotion coaching training to develop a workbook that has explanation sheets (clearly labelled as Learning Sheet in the pack), so that you can simply read through accessible information designed specifically for 6 - 11 year olds. Children can follow this up by completing the activity sheets to embed their learning.
This workbook will develop children's:
- understanding of relationships
- understanding of what friendship is
- range of social skills
This valuable kit contains a range of resources across 60 pages of PDF files that will help you support your child's social development.
This workbook contains our unique "Social Shapes" concept that promotes emotional intelligence!
The contents are formatted as a 'work at your own pace' workbook. Alternatively, you can pick and choose the sheets you wish to use to support specific goals.
