Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Like many of us, I guess, I'm currently working on next year's Long Term Planning. I wnat to incorporate SEAD for the first time. As there are 6 booklets I wondered about focussing on one for each term [half term] starting with 'New Beginnings' in September. We've had some training on it but the main focus was transition so didn't help much in that sense. Has anyone else thought along these lines yet? Or if anyone from a school setting has insight, having used SEAL before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Sorry, just realised there are 7 not 6 so maybe I've answered most of my own question!!! I'd still be interested to know whether other settings approach ttem one booklet at a time or dip into them, and how you plan it in if you do.

AnonyMouse_15046 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Could you tell us a bit more about the booklets? Where did they come from? Who are they aimed at? Are they worth getting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hi Alison, Yes, they are worth getting. Our county issued them & we've had joint sessions with reception teachers about them, using them as part of transition work. The folder's called: 'Excellence and Enjoyment: social and emotional aspects of learning'; there's also 'Social and Emotional Aspects of Development' which I've only got as a printed download Apparently you can download at www.standards.dcsf.gov.uk and they 'may be available from' www.teachernet.gov.uk/publications and order from DCSF publications, PO Box 5050 Sherwood Park Annesley Nottingham NG15 0DJ Tel: 0845 60 222 60 email: dcsf@prolog.uk.com Hope that helps!
