  The Primary Learner's Toolkit is a companion to the best selling The Learner's Toolkit ISBN: 9781845900700. Here Jackie Beere does for Primary Teachers what The Learner's Toolkit did for Secondary Teachers. This is an essential resource for supporting the SEAL framework in primary schools and for all those teaching in primary schools. It contains everything you need to create truly independent learners, confident and resilient in their ability to learn and learn well. The book contains lessons plans and teachers notes and a CD-ROM in the back of the book has all the student forms and worksheets necessary for the lessons. Lessons include: getting to know yourself; taking responsibility for your own life; persistence and resilience; setting goals for life; controlling moods; caring for your mind and body; building brain power; asking questions; developing willpower; pushing yourself out of your comfort zone; and, prioritizing and planning. Possessing these vital competencies will help children learn better and be able to contribute more effectively in school. It will also enable them to thrive in the increasingly fast-paced world of the 21st Century.
