Strategies for Overcoming Resistant Behaviour
48 A5 full colour and laminated cards
There’s a Gorilla in my Classroom: Strategies for overcoming resistant behaviour’ provides a new perspective on students in the classroom. Dr Craig Deed has worked with primary and secondary students, and their teachers, to understand the behaviour of students, whether they be engaged or disengaged. He found that in most instances, behaviour in the classroom is not motivated by deep issues. In contrast, it is a choice to engage or not to engage, to learn or not to learn.
Being able to solve problems and cope with difficulties are key developmental skills. They are fundamental to developing resilience and autonomy. When children are in their early years, they need the support of adults to develop these skills.

$180.00 (DVD, CD ROM & Booklet) Bully Free Card Game Bullying is not a game—but helping kids learn anti-bullying concepts can be. And when learning is fun and interactive, kids are more likely to retain key ideas. Based on The Bully Free Classroom® by Allan L. Beane, Ph.D., this card game plays like Crazy Eights, so most kids will have some familiarity with the process. The cards are divided into four categories: “What Would You Do If...,” “Self-Esteem Boosters,” “Ways to Stay Bully Free,” and “Why Should You Do This?” Kids get rid of cards (and move closer to being “out,” or “bully free”) by offering reasonable suggestions and responses to questions. Meant to be played with adult supervision (a teacher, counselor, or youth worker familiar with anti-bullying themes), the game includes an insert with rules and basic anti-bullying concepts.

Restorative Practices POCKET SCRIPTS
The Bullying Intervention Toolkit Aims to provide schools with a range of effective bullying intervention strategies. The strategies are all solution focused, encourage individuals to make pro-social choices, avoid labelling, and aim to educate and heal, rather than punish. The authors believe that no one intervention for bullying works best in all circumstanes. Effective intervention occurs when teachers have a range of strategies, with the accompanying knowledge and skills to know when (and when not) to use them. Making a choice about which approach to use is critical to the success of the intervention. The authors provide guidance to help make this choice, along with facilitator notes and detailed scripts. The resource includes: • 60 page book • 4 large laminated scripts (A4 size); Method of Shared Concern, Classroom Conference Early Years, Classroom Conference, Support Group Method. • 5 pocket scripts; restorative chat early years, restorative chat, No Blame brief intervention, mediation, small group discussion.

RESTORATIVE PRACTICES The Restorative Approach Explained The philosophy of Restorative Justice encourages schools and organizations to shift their thinking from a traditional model of punishment to one of education, accountability and meaningful change. It provides schools with a set of guidelines to manage even the most confronting behaviours. Restorative Justice views wrongdoing as a violation of people and relationships. When wrongdoing occurs, it is concerned with healing and repairing those individuals and their relationships. In this sense, it strengthens feelings of caring, belonging and community among school members. The restorative teacher views wrongdoing as an opportunity for learning. They use methods that develop social and emotional knowledge and skills. They create safe environments by using processes that treat all participants fairly, and with respect and dignity. Their discussions are concerned with reconnecting people and repairing relationships. They focus on the needs of everybody, including the wrongdoers. Students learn to trust the school and its processes. Victims and others learn to trust that they will be protected, that relationships will be repaired and that things will be made right. Wrongdoers learn to trust that the restorative dialogue will help them to understand and take responsibility for the harm done.
Restorative Practices in the Early Years — Visual Script and Cards A child’s ability to successfully engage in a restorative approach develops elops in line with their ability to reason. ‘The Visual Script’ has been developed ass a modified version of the original Restorative Practices Conference ool At sch Script. It has been designed to support the following groups: • Children in the early years (K – 2) Ch e • Children with special needs (Autism Spectrum Disorder, Language Dis Disorders) C • Children who have experienced trauma C • Children from generational poverty • Some boys Th Visual Script aims to support these groups by: The • Helping them to identify and express their feelings and thoughts, and understand those expressed by others. (Expressive and receptive language) • Providing them a concrete aid to help them follow what may be an abstract p process. • Providing the facilitator with language that is brief, clear and concise.

The Little Book of Victim Offender Conferencing
A bestselling book by one of the founders of the movement
Bringing Victims and Offenders Together in Dialogue
Howard Zehr
Victim offender dialogues have been developed as a way to hold offenders accountable to the person they have harmed and to give victims a voice about how to put things right. Rooted in the practices of Native peoples, “conferencing” addresses victims’ discomfort with the idea of “reconciliation”. It avoids the connotation that victims may negotiate away their losses when they hear the term “mediation”. Conferencing acknowledges the participatory nature of the process. And it gives flexibility about who is included, making room for members of the larger community if appropriate. This practical Little Book looks at: • Why someone would participate in a conference • How the process works • How very serious cases are handled • Barriers and benefits in the process
Howard Zehr, known worldwide for his pioneering work in transforming our understandings of justice, here proposes workable Principles and Practices for making restorative justice both possible and useful.

A set of 35 cards that feature the 4 key rules and most commonly used questions in the restorative process. One of the most common reasons that an intervention fails occurs when the facilitator gets lost in the process. Students become confused and can quickly lose trust. The Restorative Practices Prompt Cards may be used to: • Help facilitators to plan the process. • Ensure that the process stays on track. • Empower students. • Act as a prompt. • Help students to stay on task. • Consult with students about the important questions.
This book is the third in the school series of books on Restorative Justice. The guiding principles of restorative justice provide for a different response to bullying. When harm is done (deliberate or otherwise) it needs to be fixed. These principles are not based on definitions of bullying behaviour or measures of frequency and intensity. the authors believe that what matters most about bullying is what is done about it. The challenge for schools is to provide processes that are effective, safe and fair for all stakeholders - victims, wrongdoers, bystanders and the adults (parents and staff) who become involved. this manual is aimed directly at those at the chalkface - in classrooms, corridors and playgrounds, and now in cyberspace. this manual is intended to porovide responses that can bring about healing, and in the long term, make the school a safer place.

26pp booklet, 30 plastic coated colour cards
Scaffolding the inquiry-based learning process Helping students to become self regulating learners
These cards are a deceptively simple tool comprised of 30 meta-cognitive questiosn that may be used for critical thinking, to enrich discussions or to solve problems. For instance, when discussing an issue with a group, ask students to choose those questions they might consider before they are in a position to form an opinion. Students explain why they believe a question is relevant. They then place the card where other students can see it. As more students place cards, the complexity of their thinking begins to develop before their eyes. Students may use the cards to plan essays, iomaginative pieces of writing, inquiry-based learning or as a monitoring and evaluation tool.
To manage inquiry-based learning students require a range of strategies. ‘And Whether Pigs Have Wings’ provides a set of cards, activities and rubrics to support the development of independent learning and management strategies. It is aimed at students in the middle years of schooling, but may be utilised at either end of the spectrum.

Making Thinking Visual: Understanding Graphic Organisers 28 page book, 16 cards & CD ROM
Thinking is a messy business. Representing thoughts using a graphic organiser is a concrete way of developing the thinking skills of focus, organisation and analysis. This resource is based on the idea that thinking can be improved using visual representations. Students build thinking processes in concrete ways, and graphical representations of ideas and patterns help them to organise ideas, increase understanding and improve memory. An important characteristic of thinking strategies is that they be easily used in the classroom. The ideas and strategies in this resource can be used with little introduction. In this way, deep-learning occurs not as isolated skill development, but as part of a task.
