101 Games for Self-Esteem: Building Confidence and Motivation

This book provides a comprehensive collection of games and activities that will enhance children’s self-esteem through building friendships and having fun with others.

Part of the popular 101 series, this practical handbook draws on the authors’ in-depth knowledge and experience of teaching group games and is a vital resource for busy teachers. The book helps children to understand their feelings, to develop concentration skills, to recognise their personal qualities and to follow instructions. It is packed with ideas for engaging activities requiring little to no additional materials, with resources available to download.

Complete with a new introduction, this revised edition will enable teachers to share in the fun, humour and friendship of games, while increasing the self-esteem of the children in their classroom.
