Help it's my Assembly!

This book has all one needs for successful assemblies; instant scripts for those in a rush, prepared assemblies for those with a little more time, together with practical tips for inclusion and insights into the spiritual aspects of assemblies too. Part One shares insights gained from the authors' wide experience of teaching and leading school assemblies. It looks at what we mean by spirituality, and provides useful background reading into children's learning styles, and how barriers to learning and inclusion can be overcome. It could be used by individual teachers wishing to explore these issues or by staff groups considering their approach to spirituality across the curriculum. Part Two is a collection of 80 assemblies organised into 40 themes. This highly practical set of resources will appeal to both mainstream and special schools. It will prove invaluable to classroom teachers on the school assembly rota, to school leadership teams looking for fresh inspiration, training providers, advisors and community speakers of all faiths or secular backgrounds, who are invited to contribute to school assemblies.
