Improving Behaviour and Wellbeing in Primary Schools, 

Guiding you through 90-, 180- and 360-degree engineering, this book presents step-by-step instructions and ideas for over 200 cross-curricular themes, from cityscapes to magical creatures. Aiming to challenge and inspire, Paul Johnson uses over 150 paper-engineering techniques, including:

• storybooks
• pop-ups without folds
• zigzag pop-ups
• pulleys, wheels and levers
• asymmetrical pop-ups
• intricate toy theatres
• diagonal pop-ups with movables.

This book, brimming with pop-up techniques and how to teach them, is for everyone - from the self-styled 'visually illiterate' to the art graduate, from parents keeping creativity alive at home to classroom teachers planning an engaging curriculum for their class of 30 plus pupils.

This fully updated second edition of Teaching without Disruption in the Primary School offers a comprehensive and constructive approach to developing effective behaviour management. Packed full of tasks, case studies, and research-based guidance, this extremely practical book reflects high quality behaviour management training and is crucially informed by empirical evidence on exactly what works in classrooms and schools.

Containing two brand new chapters - one on the importance of theory in developing effective behaviour management, and the other detailing a toolkit for constructing effective classroom management plans - the book presents a model for developing:

• effective behaviour management at the individual pupil, classroom and whole school level
• professional social skills, assertiveness and coping strategies
• understanding of how teachers' thinking and behaviour can unwittingly affect pupil behaviour
• a roadmap for establishing and maintaining authority
• pupils' self-control and social competence using a cognitive-behavioural approach
• an appreciation of the value of adopting a research-based approach to behaviour management.

Roland Chaplain has used this programme to successfully teach behaviour management techniques to thousands of PGCE trainees at the University of Cambridge, UK. Underpinned by contemporary educational, psychological and neuroscientific research, this book offers a progressively focused behaviour management model which will appeal to all teachers and teacher trainees, as well as to those who train them.

This accessible second edition is packed full of valuable strategies for teachers and fun activities for children, offering guidance on how to create an inclusive and supportive classroom by developing the social, communicative and group working skills of all pupils. It has been thoroughly updated and includes new material on whole school approaches to group work, the risks and challenges involved, and how to involve Teaching Assistants and other support staff in undertaking inclusive and effective group work in classrooms. A tried-and-tested, step-by-step approach encourages both children and their teachers to develop　supportive relationships that have been found to facilitate academic performance, positive social behaviour and motivation. Since the first edition the authors have found that this handbook can be used successfully in many different countries around the world.

With ideas to help resolve problems that might arise and suggested training activities to support pupils, this text is a one-stop resource to ensure effective group work in the classroom. It is an essential guide for both trainee and practising teachers, as well as TAs and support staff, and a valuable basis for school action.

It tells the story of the Wellie Wednesday project and the journeys children took with their families and schools to achieve success. Based on attachment theory and research in psychology and neuroscience, this practical book will support practitioners, parents, carers and children, who find themselves in negative cycles and situations, to take steps forward to a positive future.

Focusing on real situations and the needs of individual children and their families, this accessible guide is divided into four sections:

• Making a difference: for individual children, their parents, carers and schools.
• Can I be included? Case studies, including impact on family and school, strategies used, changes noticed and key questions raised.
• Addressing concerns: understanding behaviour as communication.
• How change happened: enriching learning to improve behaviour.

Offering a wide collection of case studies and practical strategies, Using Outdoor Learning to Improve Behaviour for All will be an essential resource for all teachers, parents and carers wanting to support and guide children towards accessing education successfully.

The authors show how developing such skills within the context of a wellbeing agenda aids children's motivation, their ability to concentrate and their willingness to explore, investigate and question, bringing huge benefits for children's sense of achievement, self-confidence and resilience. Drawing on a wealth of practical activities that include both creative and critical ways of thinking, chapters cover:

• Wellbeing in the Classroom;
• Emotional Resourcefulness;
• Relaxation and Meditation;
• Mindfulness and Reflectiveness;
• Being Well.

Jumpstart Wellbeing is a treasure trove of fun activities and ideas for building wellbeing and its constituent skills into the curriculum.
