Keep Your Coooooool! 
Stress Reducing Strategies for Key Stage 2 and 3

`As one would expect from a publisher with a proven track record in books on behaviour management… well illustrated, easy to use and potentially very effective′ –
Highland

`Would be a useful resource to encourage the inclusion of emotional literacy to a wider audience without ‘giving away the psychology’. It could easily be used by teachers as a package, or be used in conjunction with an EP where schools need more encouragement to feel less confident. I would recommend this as a useful practical resource for schools′ – Educational Psychology in Practice

All people, including young people, face tensions and stress but its how we learn to manage stress thats important.

The sections of this book cover:

‘ what is stress

‘ who becomes affected by stress

‘ the stresses faced by young people

‘ good ways to beat stress

‘ new ways of coping with stress.

The sections use stories to help children understand stress and how it manifests itself, and to develop a set of skills and coping strategies. There are comprehensive teacher notes, photocopiable worksheets and a variety of stress management strategies.

This resource is intended for whole class/group work and is not recommended for individual support for children who have suffered severe trauma.
