Riassunto

Challenging times call for challenging assemblies. Global warming, depleted resources, conflicts, disease, and the growing gap between the haves and the have-nots. With a focus on citizenship, spirituality, values, and taking responsibility, this is for schools looking to develop the next generation of thinkers who might just save the world.

Dalla quarta di copertina

For young people growing up in the twenty-first century life can seem very complex, with many issues to worry about ? such as global warming, depleted natural resources and living together harmoniously in rapidly changing communities. The generation of children currently passing through our schools will have to resolve these issues for us. This will be achieved partly through the skills and the intelligence they gather and partly through the development of a spiritual intelligence that will enable them to become good citizens and do the right things at the right time ? which is the focus of this unique book. It also recognises the pressures school leaders and teachers are under.
The materials for each theme are presented in each of these three ways:

Three Star Assembly Help! I have only ten minutes in which to plan a good assembly or classroom activity
Four Star Assembly I have lots of extra time to plan or collect resources or involve the children
Five Star Assembly Ofsted are coming! I want to plan the assembly of all assemblies, the lesson of all lessons

This book is aimed at key stages two and three, ages 7?14. It contains beautiful and thought-provoking colour photographs throughout, which are also included on a free accompanying CD.

This is a ?must have for all of us who lead school assemblies and want to engage pupils with relevant world issues that will touch their hearts and open their minds.
Dr. Neil Hawkes, International Consultant and Trainer in Values-based Education (VbE)

A life-saver for those times when you need an assembly that will really impress!
James Bowen, Head Teacher, Mill Rythe Junior School

This book gives teachers the chance to use assemblies to bring awe, wonder and spirituality into school.
Bill Lord, Head Teacher, Long Sutton Community Primary School, former National Strategies Literacy Advisor

Offers teachers and schools a wealth and breadth of thought-provoking opportunities for reflection.
Sr Jude Groden RSM, Primary R.E. Adviser,Diocese of Brentwood

Challenging and thought-provoking subject matter, coupled with incredible photography, ensure that both child and practitioner are hooked.
Karen Bister, Deputy Head Teacher, Woodthorpe Primary

The excellent quality of the pictures sets the emotive backcloth for relevant thought and reflection.
