The School of Life - Know Yourself Prompt Cards - Cards for Self-Reflection

Product Information

It is of particular interest to department heads looking to improve pedagogy across their team or individual teachers looking to develop their use of metacognition in lessons.

We know that our children are often full of stories to tell, with different ideas floating around their minds. They might know what they want their princess or their hero to do, but they don't always know how they are going to get there. Whether it's working out the setting of their story, describing what their characters can see, or even things like clothing or important items that will appear in their story, these storytelling prompts are a great way to give them a little help along the way. It can also help kids learn to communicate more effectively and they can expand their vocabulary with new and more challenging words they might not have heard of before. The prompt cards give short written instructions and diagrams so you know what you need to do. Your examiner will not use the cards when the car is moving. Before the day of your test This set of 52 full colour double sided prompt cards is accompanied by an explanatory guide, which provides hints and tips on using the cards to promote reflective practice and reflective supervision. For some children, social interaction and conversation comes naturally. However, some children can find it a bit difficult, and they may struggle to think of topics of conversation. That's where these After School Question Cards come in. They're great prompts, so your little one doesn't need to worry.

Wait, there's more... Do you like your story books to come with an extra challenge? We also make puzzle adventure books where you can look for clues and solve riddles while you read! Try out our Twinkl Puzzled Adventure Books, including Adventure at Dragon Castle, The Theatre of Magic and The Lost Astronaut. Why are these story cards useful? A: We are often so scared of being humiliated by the gap between our aspirations and our reality that we don’t even dare to voice any aspiration – thereby conclusively ensuring that it can never come true. We owe it to ourselves to state what we deep down feel we could do and be – even if it never comes right. We’ve also created these What Would You Do If…? Cards, which get children thinking about how they would respond to a range of real-life scenarios. These cards are great for improving children’s social skills and preparing them for the outside world.
