Inhaltsangabe

Talkabout for Adults is a practical resource to help therapists or support
staff to develop self-awareness and self-esteem in adults. It has been
particularly aimed at adults with an intellectual disability (learning
disability) or older children with special needs. It has been adapted from
the Talkabout for Children: developing self-awareness and self-esteem to be
suitable for an older audience. This means that some of the activities are
almost identical but a number of them have been adapted to be more
appropriate. There are also some new activities such as the 'A book about
meâEUR¿' which enables the adults to make up a book over the course of the
sessions that will summarise some keys personal facts. This can work well
as an addition to a communication passport or equivalent, or can stand
alone as an alternative.
Talkabout for Adults is a stand-alone resource with approximately a year's
worth of activities to develop self-awareness and self-esteem. It has 50
activities to do with adults and it has been successfully piloted at
Speaking Space. It includes:
A short assessment of self-awareness and self-esteem
A year's worth of work on self-awareness and self-esteem including 50
activities and some worksheets
Practical suggestions to make your group work successful including 25 group
cohesion activities, a plan for intervention, and forms for monitoring and
evaluation
This resource continues to use the TALKABOUT hierarchical approach to
teaching skills, that is, basic self-awareness skills are taught prior to
more complex skills such as social skills and friendship skills. This also
means that this resource is designed to be used logically from topic 1
through to topic 8.
Most of the activities are more suited to working in a group setting but
some of them can be adapted for one-to-one work.
