What is the most effective way to integrate S.E.A.L across the curriculum? Just sit back and relax!

Play Pause Unwind – Relaxation With Attitude! offers a series of life-enhancing, guided visualisations, covering the S.E.A.L. themes for your entire year. Each relatable scenario can be listened to as a stimulus for discussion to help develop children’s social and emotional literacy or simply as an aid to relaxation after lunch or at the end of a busy day. Taking as little as two minutes, the audio tracks are also ideal for use as a cool down at the end of a P.E. lesson or as a starting point for lessons across the curriculum.

Developed with schools and feedback from pupils, teachers and The Healthy Schools Partnership, Play Pause Unwind’s unique combination of calming speech, dynamic music and immersive sound effects makes it accessible to children, teenagers, adults and all ability levels. The teaching notes, by Inclusion Manager and Deputy Headmistress, Lorraine Ramet (BSc [Hons], PGCE, NPQH), give 100s of imaginative ideas for using this groundbreaking resource as a stimulus in all subject areas.
