Creating a Communication and Emotion Friendly Environment in a Key Stage Two classroom

The EA Language and Communication Service and RISE NI have come together to develop a course to support teachers in the classroom and beyond. This course will help you build a Communication and Emotion Friendly Environment for your pupils in your setting.

By the end of this training we hope the following outcomes will be achieved by: 

• Exploring what we as adults need to do to make our classrooms language, communication and emotion friendly. 
• Focusing on building strong interpersonal relationships 
• Looking at a few key areas: Communication Strategies, Social Communication, Emotional Communication Strategies and how to use talk to extend young people’s thinking. 
• Discussing resources and how to embed this into the school day!
