PATHS^® has taught me that all feelings are OK but the way we react is sometimes not OK.

PATHS^® teaches us how to feel other people’s feelings and treat them the way you would like to be treated

PATHS^® is a time when we all gather around in a calm and safe place and talk about what happens to us and different feelings.

Redriff have seen a difference in the children that have now been experiencing the PATHS^® curriculum for the past year and a half. Children are able to discuss their feelings with a lot more confidence and understanding. Within the playground children feel empowered to try to sort out minor issues with each other, rather than always seeking adult supervision. The children are also demonstrating using more mature vocabulary around feelings within other subjects such as literacy and guided reading sessions.

Training was very thorough and I was given really useful strategies. I refer back to the posters and use whole class strategies all the time in class.
