Understanding and Managing Children's Behaviour through Group Work Ages 7 - 11

This practical guide offers educators and parents concrete strategies for addressing behavioral challenges in children ages 7-11 through structured group activities. Cath Hunter provides a clear framework for understanding the emotional and developmental roots of disruptive behavior, moving beyond simple discipline to foster genuine social-emotional growth. The book is packed with actionable group work exercises designed to build empathy, communication skills, and self-regulation in a supportive peer setting. It serves as both a diagnostic tool and an intervention manual for creating positive behavioral change.

What sets this resource apart is its dual focus on understanding the 'why' behind the behavior while providing the 'how' for effective management. Hunter's approach is particularly valuable for teachers, school counselors, and support staff working with children who struggle with emotional regulation or peer relationships. The real strength lies in translating psychological insight into practical group sessions that children actually engage with. This book will fundamentally change how adults perceive challenging behavior and equip them to facilitate meaningful improvements in classroom dynamics and individual student wellbeing.
