Each theme consists of an interactive story, specially composed songs, and yoga inspired moves. The moves in the story can also be used as wonderful standalone activities to calm, energise and stretch. Each theme comes with a selection of extension activities to enhance the story. As you progress through the themes you will build a complete toolkit of songs, movements and stories.
‘The Whole of Me is a multi-sensory, carefully layered resource that will guide & support teachers who understand that children don’t learn unless they feel safe and happy.
As teachers use the story-based activities, children express their creativity through movement,
sounds and words.
The world can be an overwhelming place for a young person. Through movement, sound, and playful discovery, children have an innate ability to express what is in the artist’s dream.
The Whole of Me uses evidence-based cognitive science to tap into children’s innate ability to create. It supports teachers to make their classrooms into places where children’s well-being is the foundation for developing a sense of community.
There is no other resource out there of this quality. ‘
