About this book
The books help children deal with anxiety, confidence issues, bullying, fears, change, loss and grief. These little stories about big feelings will help children develop the resilience they need to cope effectively with these important issues as they grow up. The teaching guide is split into five sections, covering the themes addressed in the individual books and provides activities and guidance on how to explore these issues in the classroom. Activities include guided visualisations, physical exercises, drama games, mindfulness exercises, craft activities and card games. The teaching guide includes the text from the five books meaning they can be read aloud in class. The illustrations from them are available as free downloads so that they can be projected onto a screen or whiteboard.
The Feel Brave series was a finalist in the 2017 Education Resources Awards in the Educational Book Award category.

CHAPTER 2
ANXIETY AND FEARS
Too much stress and pressure can limit the ability of our minds to engage in learning. When we are anxious or fearful, our brains become closed and inflexible. Developing strategies to cope with negative emotions helps with all-round emotional and cognitive development.
WHY TEACH HOW TO MANAGE ANXIETY AND FEARS?
KEY LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- I am aware of my own feelings (e.g. sad, happy, cross, scared, worried, excited, happy).
- I know how to get help when I have a bad feeling.
- I know some ways to manage a bad feeling.
THE WOLF AND THE SHADOW MONSTER
This story can be used to open up conversations around anxiety and fears, with follow-up activities based around whatever your school’s focus might be at the time (e.g. celebrating being brave) or a particular value which is relevant (e.g. courage).
