The Powerhouse
An All-in-One Resource for Building Self-Esteem in Primary Schools
This copiable resource, developed from the work of Elizabeth Morris, Principal of the School of Emotional Literacy, is an
essential addition to primary school resources on self-esteem.
Designed as a teaching aid for the PSHE curriculum, the sections are graded from 5 to 7 years to 9 to 11 years, following the topics:
" All about me
" Me and my world
" You and me
" My dreams and wishes
" My daily dilemmas.
Each section contains teacher notes and photocopiable pupil activity worksheets.
The resource helps schools develop the emotional literacy of young people and can be linked to other curriculum topics.
`The uncluttered worksheets in The Powerhouse provide a useful template to spark a childs imagination. The sections for pupil evaluations will help develop the skills of self-reflection: a necessary indicator of emotional intelligence. It is a good introduction to emotional literacy and a welcome addition to primary staffroom resources' - Mark Edwards, Times Educational Supplement
