This is a book with something of use and interest
for anyone involved in education. I suggest that a teacher picking this
up and opening it at random wound find on any page something that would
not only enhance their teaching but their own well-being, as well as
the well-being of the children they teach.
Within each section are a number of chapters with
themes including, ‘Well-being for staff and pupils’, Gardening
with children’ and 'Tai chi in the playground’ (to select
just a small sample).
Generally there is background information written
in bite-sized chunks, often with a case study and suggested activities,
further reading, references and a list of useful resources. A book well
worth buying and reading!
