Think 5 English Edition KS1 & KS2 (pdf)
Colourful, engaging and practical cards that give staff the confidence to support the mental health and wellbeing of children, not as an 'additional extra' but as part and parcel of day to day teaching - without an additional planning burden!
In 2018, the National Literacy Trust published a report on ‘Mental wellbeing, reading and writing’ and found that children who enjoyed and actively engaged with reading and writing were three times more likely to have high levels of mental wellbeing than their least engaged peers. Reading leads to a developed vocabulary which means that children can articulate their feelings more accurately, they connect and empathise with characters and can read about other people who may have had similar experiences to them, making them feel less alone. It can also increase both self confidence and self awareness. Writing can provide an outlet for emotions and can also help to crystallize and make sense of feelings which could otherwise be nebulous.
