Weaving Well-Being: Positive Relationships – Teacher Book (Year 5)

Weaving Well-Being is a research-based mental health program that aims to enhance well-being in children aged 7–12.

Each book in the series introduces students to age-appropriate concepts and skill drawn from the field of Positive Psychology, the science of well-being.

Research has shown that people who maintain positive relationships throughout their lives experience better health and lower levels of stress. The ten lessons in the Positive Relationships Teacher Book equips Year 5 students with eight practical strategies they can use on a daily basis to cultivate strong relationships with their peers, friends and family.

Each lesson consists of a downloadable PowerPoint introduction, along with suggested development ideas and activities for students to complete. The accompanying Student Book allows children to reflect on their learning as they gradually build a highly personal portfolio of work.

Weekly homework activities give students the opportunity to explore how their well-being can be integrated into their daily lives. The included pull-out guide provides parents with all the information they need to actively support their child throughout the program.
