About this deal

One day Ruby gets a worry, and as time goes on the worry grows and grows until she can't focus on anything but the worry. Ruby thinks she's the only one with a worry until she meets she sees a boy at the park who also has a worry. And talking to him she discovers how to make her worry smaller. But it was the nineties, so you have to give me a break. Now, you might think that it's rare for a teenager to feel so relaxed, and you'd be right - it was a complete fabrication. Children love the story 'Ruby's Worry'. It is a wonderful book that promotes talking about feelings. Teachers and pupils will discuss how we feel in different situations and scenarios and how talking to others about our worries can help. Children will be able to see links between different subjects, which leads to deeper, more valuable learning. It is very important for a child's health and wellbeing for them to recognise how they feel and what to do if they feel they need help with their mental health. Who is this topic web for? I have created literacy graphic organizers for Ruby Finds a Worry. You can find them at my Teachers Pay Teachers store. There are many activities for each literacy area to differentiate depending on your student’s ability/age. They include activities for:

This book is a great way to make children aware on how they can deal with their own worries and it shows them that they're not alone as everyone gets anxious or worried at some point of their lives. I am planning to read this with my class and use it to spark a discussion about how worries won't go away if we just avoid them and ignore them, as well as talking about ways that worries can be resolved such as talking to a friend or trusted adult. In our school we are really trying hard to make sure that every child has the opportunity to share things that are worrying them, so each classroom has a communication box so children can write a note to their teacher, even if they don't feel comfortable or don't have the opportunity to talk about their worry in person straightaway. This book is really perfect to support this, as well as reinforce the message that we cannot do anything to help unless we know that it is a problem. Resources to support the delivery of early years sessions in an outside space. These activities are aimed at children aged two to five but can be adapted for other ages. In the vein of Me And My Fear and When Sadness Is at Your Door, Ruby Finds a Worry manifests a feeling into a wordless, omniscient being that essentially stalks the main character. Sometimes that's how big emotions weigh on us: relentless, darkening every part of your life. And the more you think about it, the more noticeable its presence becomes!For more books about starting school or nursery see our Starting school or nursery booklist on Words for Life. Truly great book for children to feel comfortable with sharing their feelings. Ruby’s worry is based around a little girl who was a small worry which then begins to grow. She seeks for a way to to get rid of the worry. This is a book that will be useful in any primary classroom or library as it talks about how Ruby comes across a worry...and that worry begins to get bigger and bigger the more she tries to ignore it. Soon the worry gets so big that it is getting in the way of her sleeping or doing the things she loves - what could she do to make her worry go away?

Maybe it's not going to be the whole solution, but it's always the starting point, and once you know where to start, who knows how far you'll go? The statutory framework for the early years foundation stage and the reading framework, both refer to poetry and highlight the importance of saying and learning poems in the early...Activities for introducing early years children to the concept of mindfulness, linked to the book Happy: A Children’s Book of Mindfulness. If your child has a worry - and all children do have worries - this is the ideal book to encourage them to talk about it' Parents In Touch Adorable art with a well-intended story, but the simplistic solution , ironically, made me worry a bit. All kids have worries. A lot of them think they are alone. The worries can grow if you try to ignore them. Knowing you are not alone can help. This is all true, and this is all the great part of the book. But Ruby finds another child who also has a worry (great!), and they talk about them (wonderful!), and the worries go away (you were so close!).

What will my child learn participating in this topic?

These words don't make us feel good. They're a bit like those bright yellow caterpillars that warn birds not to eat them because they're poisonous. In fact, just typing them out makes my stomach feel knotted, especially the last two... I guess that means I'm susceptible to stress. He grew up in a remote and beautiful part of South Shropshire. On reflection this seemed rather more remote than beautiful, owing to the fact that he lived in a small caravan without electricity, mains water or any sensible form of heating. He thinks that he’s probably one of the few people in his peer group to have learnt to read by gas lamp.If your child has a worry - and all children do have worries - this is the ideal book to encourage them to talk about it Ruby has a Worry that follows her everywhere, but she discovers the best way to get rid of it is to talk about her worries. Ruby Finds a Worry by Tom Percival gives you the opportunity to teach: At first it's not such a big worry, and that's all right, but then it starts to grow. It gets bigger and bigger every day and it makes Ruby sad. How can Ruby get rid of it and feel like herself again?

I feel it's important for children, and their parents, to be offered books that might help them navigate their emotional journeys. We encourage our kids to eat healthily and get enough exercise, so it makes sense that we also help them to understand their emotional wellbeing and focus on exploring ways to improve mental health. Session plans linked to Ruby's Worry and Ravi's Roar, both by Tom Percival, to help children share and understand their feelings and to help create a sense of belonging in their new environment (can be used for nursery, reception and Year 1) Nice art and story, even if the solution to worrying is super simplified, causing much scoffing from my wife who has spent a great portion of her life engaged in worries.
