Talkabout for Children 3

Talkabout for Children: Developing Friendship Skills is a bestselling professional workbook supporting educators and therapists who deliver social and relationship skills groups for children with social, emotional or behavioural difficulties.

This resource creates the final level of the Talkabout hierarchy, where self-awareness comes before non-verbal skills and non-verbal skills precede verbal skills, with assertiveness coming last.

Resources include:

• An assessment framework
• Planning and evaluation forms
• A three-term intervention plan for schools
• Over 25 structured activity sessions focusing on friendship skills
• All the supplementary handouts and images needed to deliver the sessions

This second edition is presented with full-colour illustrations and handouts, and includes a new introduction by Alex Kelly, reflecting on her own experiences of using the resources since they were first developed.
