This ten week program is designed to be used with one or more packs of the Tell A Trusted Adult cards. In Australia a school term consists of ten weeks, so this program can be delivered weekly throughout a term. The lesson plans are part of the Tell A Trusted Adult kit, which also includes one set of the Tell A Trusted Adult cards, a comprehensive booklet and 6 posters.
The key message of this program is: ‘Tell a trusted adult’. As such, the lessons focus on teaching children to:
  • recognise the warning signs of unsafety
  • understand their bodies and emotions
  • recognise the body signals that let them know they are safe or unsafe
  • build awareness about the difference between feeling excited or challenged and feeling unsafe
  • develop strategies for getting help (including telling a trusted adult)
  • identify the personal qualities and traits of a trusted adult
  • establish a network of trusted adults.

 

Each lesson includes variations for children aged from 3 to 10+. While these lessons have been created especially for a classroom environment, they can be adapted for other settings including family work, out-of-home care, and anywhere children are nurtured and cared for. Please feel free to adapt these lessons to suit your individual classroom, group and setting.

Testimonials

I have a big heart for Innovative Resources and their tools because they’ve really journeyed with me as I’ve grown as a therapist

Pip Westwood, Play Therapist Masters in Child Play Therapy | Undergraduate in Psychology | Private Practice

The most common question we’re asked is how do we talk with children about grief? Innovative Resources cards are a great place to start.

Shelly Skinner, CEO of Lionheart Lionheart’s programs are designed to educate children, teens, and adults about grief and loss.

We regularly used Innovative Resources card sets for team building, debriefing and talking about hopes and pictures of the future. I love the non-prescriptive nature of the cards. They are particularly useful in learning and talking about feelings with people of all ages who are not used to putting language to their feelings.
