Guest Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 I am SENCo in a large Primary School. I plan to commence a Nurture Group for a group of Reception Pupils with a range of behavioural and emotional difficulties. We have more than usual this year. Has anyone done similar. If so could they advise on resources programmes? I plan to use SEAL and Persona Doll plus a range of games, toys and activities. I see the group commencing with Circle Time followed by a game or activity. I may even use parachute games etc. Any suggestions would be welcome. Many thanks!
Guest Wolfie Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 We had a nurture group at our nursery last year - it ran along very similar lines to the ones that you suggest. We had a maximum of five children in the group at any one time and concentrated very much on PSE skills with circle and small group activities and a snack time. We borrowed the sensory box of resources from our local toy library for a few weeks and that went down really well. Good luck, I think it's a really good initiative.
