Educator Appraisal

IN-Hub teacher evaluation Charlie Kelman gives her evaluation of Language for Behaviour and Emotions, by Thinking Talking. Here is a summary of what Charlie thinks: “This is a book with examples of situations, approaches and interventions to support children with social, emotional and mental health needs and speech and language needs. I liked that it's practical, useable and has suggestions for supporting children throughout. I didn't like the cost, as well as that it's quite long so would need time to dedicate to getting to grips with it.”

Evidence Rating

No evidence - While the authors of Language for behaviour and emotions state that they have based the book on "theoretical knowledge", there are no named theories or seminal research which are acknowledged. It seems that the authors have based lots of the information in this book on anecdotal and clinical practice, so the strategies may be useful, but there is no evidence available to support this.
