We Are Kind And Helpful ... We Do Not Hurt Anybody’s Feelings (A3) By Donna Luck and Juliet Doyle £17.95
Let's face it - its is ony kindness that will ever make this world a better place. In this simple story Elsa Elephant behaves badly which leads to important lessons about being kind and helpful. There’s a big surprise in store for the whole class - except for Elsa Elephant who has behaved badly and not thought of others feelings. Miss Beanie does not choose her but instead gives the surprise to Gino Giraffe and Zelda Zebra to look after. A chance encounter finally allows Elsa to prove to Miss Beanie that she too can be kind and helpful and she learns just how nice it can be to be trusted to follow the Golden Rule. This resource is part of Jenny Mosley’s New Golden Rule range. Honestly, you really need the full Golden Rules series if you want to help young children truly understand the Golden Rules; each story in the Golden Rules book series focuses upon just one rule and features the familiar characters of Miss Beanie’s class. The Golden Rules Deluxe Book pack comes with the Circle Time Handbook fo the Golden Rules Stories and a set of finger puppets. The Golden Rules Handbook really helps you bring the Golden Rules books alive for children. Packed full of vibtant Circle Time lesson plans, it gives lots of ideas on how to use circle time lesson plans, puppets and games to really help children embed the moral values embodied in the wonderful Golden Rules series. Jenny Mosley’s Small Books of the Golden Rules in Action series are bursting with ideas to bring the Golden Rules to life! We need these values to burn brightly in children’s minds. Inside each book you will find games and activities that make each Golden Rule real and relevant to all children. Each page is crammed with stimulating ideas and extension activities to make learning motivating and fun. We think of these little booklets as golden treasure chests that you can open at any time of day to teach your chidlren positive values adn skills. These booklets will help the Golden Rules on the walls leap into the hearts. Research tells us that chaotic children don’t learn well from just the spoken word of written words and that good visual images can ‘hit’ the right ‘bit’ of the brain to alert them about what to do next. Our Golden Rules posters, stickers and flashcards are just the right images and the Golden Rules Flash Cards come with a free Golden Rules game! (PP)

Golden Rules Animal Story books(Positive Press:Jenny Mosley GR series) The Golden Rules have been part of many classrooms all over Ireland. Jenny Mosley has developed resource after resource to help promote positive behaviour and self esteem in primary level children. We have always been huge fans of Jenny and her work in circle and golden time and are delighted to be reviewing them. We will always give an honest opinion, if we love something, we really do! This is a series of 6 A5 picture books. They are glossy and colourful and each one focusses on a different golden rule using talking animals. The stories are written at a level suitable for a really good Junior Infant level, Senior Infants, 1st and even 2nd Class. Because there is a lot of text and more challenging vocabulary, each page’s vocab could be pre taught to a younger class. I still think the Junior Infants would enjoy as the pictures and story line reel them right in. They would be a great addition to any class library and if your class are following the Golden Rules, these will be another positive reinforcer for them! Relevance to curriculum aims 5/5: These books can help utilise that bridge between english and social, personal and health education. You can great mileage out of these books, using thematic planning and a language experience approach-shared reading and writing. Teacher usability: 4/5 Extremely usable as in the teacher can instantly access them without any pre-teaching. The books also come in a Big Book size so these A5 could be used whole or individual class level. These smaller books could also be placed on a visualiser for whole class interaction with the pictures and language. By Rozz Lewis of Anseo.net Quote from: Jenny Mosley’s Golden Rules Books
