Being together, working in a group and handling relationships is a form of learning. This book offers an authentic “toolbox” for education on relationships. It is full of activities to try out with different age groups, for improving an individual’s social relational skills and the group’s capacity to express creativity and affection and to deal with problems met in a constructive and innovative way.

Problems which appear to be irresolvable, if seen from a individualistic point of view, can turn into learning opportunities if centred on well-organised, reliable, well-managed and protective groups.

A book for…

  • learning to manage group dynamics, so that each person in the group is valued, improving communication and social learning;
  • learning to use conflicts within groups in an evolutional way, without fearing them or allowing group dynamics left to themselves to lead to dead ends.

The strengths of this book

  • Full of activities, rituals and teaching strategies for improving classwork and managing conflicts
