Are you concerned about bullying in your classroom? Bullying is sadly something that happens on a daily basis and most children will be affected by it in some way, shape or form during their school lives. By the time our youngsters are teenagers, bullying takes on new forms and can leave lasting negative effects on their physical and emotional well-being. I believe we need to spend time teaching our students how to recognise bullying and how to deal with it so that we can help them develop into resilient and assertive individuals to help them cope with adulthood. In order to ensure these important skills can be integrated into our busy timetables, this resource has been designed to make it as easy to deliver as possible! It includes a structured PowerPoint that guides the class through discussions about bullying and how to deal with it and develop assertiveness. It can be taught as a whole unit in PSHE or divided up over a few weeks to deliver to tutor groups. No prior knowledge or experience from you is required! On top of this, the PowerPoint text is EDITABLE so you can modify the content to suit your students’ needs, should you wish. Also included are graphic organizer printables which are supplementary to the PowerPoint: they’re not a requirement, but they work as a helpful tool for students to record their thoughts in an aesthetically pleasing way that can then be used for wall displays etc. You will also find a set of discussion task cards for students to discuss possible scenarios they may come across: these can be printed off for each group of students, or they can be used in whole class discussion – it is up to you! Product includes: • 22 slide PowerPoint • 14 printables of detailed teachers' notes and graphic organizers • 6 scenarios to analyse Students will learn: • To identify what bullying is • To analyse common situations and discuss which are considered bullying and why • The reasons why people might bully others • The impact bullying has on others • Ways they can respond to bullies • How to be assertive • How to deal with bullying • Support networks they can turn to for support • A final pep-talk! Great for Social Skills, Life skills, Tutor Periods and PSHE (Physical, Social, Health Education) lessons.

Self-confidence affirmation cards for teachers and teens - colour in, reflect and really believe with these 10 colouring affirmation cards! Self-confidence is a fundamental factor in success and many of our youth in this day and age are lacking that self-belief they can succeed. We often hear "I can't do this", "I'm rubbish at this", "I can't do it on my own, you have to help me"... What some teachers have tried to do is introduce positive affirmations that students are to repeat over and over again. The idea is nice, but does it really work? Does saying something make it true? Well, at best we might get a temporary high or feel motivated for a short time, but in the long term it’s less likely to have lasting effects and that's because we are actually missing a very important step. Now picture yourself being the teacher who is able to help their student really believe these affirmations. Your students are able to believe it because you're helping them see the truth in these statements for themselves. With this pack of 10 affirmation cards, you can be that teacher. You will be giving your students some quiet reflection time where they can color in positive affirmations, but they will also be reflecting on some very significant and tailored questions that will help them prove that the affirmation they are stating is the truth. In time, you will see their self-confidence begin to flourish and success will be inevitable thanks to your guidance! There are 10 different cards to choose from in this set. Each quote comes in both postcard and business card size, ideal for keeping in wallets, lockers and pin boards etc. These are designed to be coloured in and then folded in half and glued together to keep forever - you could even have them laminated for maximum longevity! ​The great thing about these being colouring affirmations is, one, it saves on ink and money (hooray!), two it allows time for mindfulness where your students can sit and relax for a few minutes reflecting on the statement and questions, and three it personalises each card to help your students connect with it more - seeing their doodles reminds them of how they were feeling when they were colouring it in and answering the questions in their mind! By spending time colouring these in, you will give your students time to be creative and then associate that feeling when they look at the cards again in the future. It’s all mind games and using the power of our brains to achieve our potential. These would even be effective on us as teachers too, so give them a try and give you and your students the opportunity to just focus, motivate and enjoy yourselves today – you deserve it!

Your students will really enjoy being rewarded with these coupons and because they are digital, the first of their kind, you won’t need to worry about printing or losing any cards ever again! These work for any class and any subject and they are so simple to use and they won’t cost you a small fortune! When you wish to reward positive behaviour of your students, you will be able to pull up a special Google Slides doc that will begin scrolling fast showing a flash of all the different options! Your student can then hit the space bar to freeze the screen and find out their reward! This can be done in front of the whole class or on a standalone computer or device. It is then up to your student when they choose to cash in their prize. (I personally get them to use it that lesson or at least that day so it’s easy for you to keep a record of who has won what! I have also included a quick sheet they can sign their name on once they have won a reward and you can simply tick off when they have cashed it in.) There is also a second option that includes QR codes, this adds a bit more mystery as they have to scan the code to find out their prize! You can keep this digital to save on printing, but I have also included printable options in both colour and black and white for you too if you prefer. The students love having the excitement of the “lottery” and celebrating in class is also really motivating for the rest of the group too! Rewards include: • Choose your own seat • Listen to music while you work • Skip homework • Get free time • Get a positive phone call home • Be dismissed from class first • Work with a friend this lesson • Get free doodle time • Choose a song to play in class and lots more!

Get access to 3 vibrant and unique editable Google Forms ready for back to school! Get to know your students on a deeper level, have fun with "this or that" quick fire questions and ask your students' parents some insightful questions too! You will also be able to see student responses live on screen and use this information to really get to know your students. Also very handy if you really don't want to be dealing with extra piles of paper this year! New to Google forms? Don't worry, I have also included an exclusive video to guide you through how to use these forms in your own classroom :) *** Here’s a little background story as to why I created these Get to Know You Google forms: I recently took over a new class and I had a “hand over” meeting with their former teacher to tell me more about them. She knew most of them well academically and behaviourally, however she floundered when asked about their personal interests and admitted she couldn’t tell me anything about some of them…!? I wanted to make sure I knew something about every one of my kids, hence these Google forms were born! You’re bound to learn something about each student if you actually make an effort to ask them (and the quiet ones might prefer to type it up rather than talk about it) and you can then use that information to help build relationships over time. This set contains 3 different forms for you. There are 2 forms for students: • one goes deep on on their interests, fears and hobbies • the other is a more laid back and fun school related “this or that” game • the third form is for the parents / guardians so you can start to build a relationship with them too by getting their perspective on their child, learn what they want from you and how they would like to be contacted etc. The Google Forms are attractive and vibrant and can be done in class or completed as homework on any device that is connected to the internet. I wish you a long and happy relationship with your new class this year!
