This practical, interactive resource is designed to be used by professionals who work with children and young people who have Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs and Speech, Language and Communication needs.

Gaps in language and emotional skills can have a negative impact on behaviour as well as mental health and self-esteem. The Language for Behaviour and Emotions approach provides a systematic approach to developing these skills so that young people can understand and work through social interaction difficulties.

Key features include:

A focus on specific skills that are linked to behaviour, such as understanding meaning, verbal reasoning and emotional literacy skills.
A framework for assessment, as well as a range of downloadable activities, worksheets and resources for supporting students.
Sixty illustrated scenarios that can be used flexibly with a wide range of ages and abilities to promote language skills, emotional skills and self-awareness.

This invaluable resource is suitable for use with young people with a range of abilities in one to one, small group or whole class settings. It is particularly applicable to children and young people who are aiming to develop wider language, social and emotional skills including those with Developmental Language Disorder and Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Industry Reviews

The important and complex link between children and young people with SEMH difficulties and those with SLC needs is fully considered in this manual. It provides a comprehensive assessment framework, followed by a wide range of realistic interactive interventions aimed at addressing specific communication needs, and illustrated scenarios that young people can explore to develop the necessary skills for potentially problematic social interactions. LFBE is written by experienced practitioners and provides practical interventions for those professionals who support vulnerable children.

Dr Rob Long, Chartered Educational Psychologist, UK

I commend this resource to you - it's informative, compelling, straightforward to understand, makes a strong effort to engage the children/young people in setting their own goals, attractive to look at and enjoyable to use.
