About the webinar

This webinar demonstrates how to ‘double dip’, using quality children’s literature to achieve Primary English outcomes, whilst developing students’ skills and understanding of wellbeing and resilience.

The Bounce Back program, now in its 3rd Edition, and written by teacher educators and psychologists Helen McGrath and Toni Noble, incorporates over 400 children’s picture books.

 

Outcomes:

  • What are the values & skills for wellbeing and resilience and why it is important to teach them
  • Examples of high-quality picture books, poems and book-related songs and videoclips that can assist teaching the values and skills that promote wellbeing and resilience while, at the same time, reinforcing skills related to the English curriculum
  • Using picture books as the basis for circle time discussion, cooperative learning activities, educational games and thinking tools.
