Suitable for all ages but designed for KS2 (ages 7-11). Contains PowerPoint with two part starter, complete teaching input, BBC video link and plenary plus 2 worksheet based activities. Lesson length 1 hour. All images either sourced from openclipart.org or owned by tftf.

This unit of work is several weeks for your TA to deliver for a small group of pupils. I have written it for children who need to develop friendships and friendship skills. I hope you find it useful. A TA can pick this up with no explanation or support and should be able to deliver with just an hour or so to familiarise herself, print resources etc. I have also made a game in case your school doesn't have friendship type games. Enjoy your weekend. I hope it saved you some time and energy and that your children learn some friendship and social skills. Thank you for buying from me. I would appreciate a friendly review as I have kept the cost down, please bear in mind the amount of work when you leave my review.
