100 Ideas for Early Years Practitioners: Supporting Children with SEND is a must-have resource filled with fun, creative and engaging multi-sensory activities and strategies to best support the learning and development of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), across the Early Years Foundation Stage. Increasing numbers of children require specialist interventions and support when they start in the Early Years. Susan O'Connor uses her wealth of experience to present 100 practical ideas to help all those working in the Early Years meet the individual learning needs of children with SEND, including attention and behaviour difficulties, speech and language difficulties, early signs of dyslexia, autism and dyspraxia, and social and emotional difficulties. With ideas focusing on fine and gross motor skills, working memory, social skills, early speech and language skills, and self-esteem and wellbeing, these fun and engaging strategies are suitable and easy to implement for both indoor and outdoor learning.

A multicultural anthology, edited by Susan O’Connor and Annick Smith, about the enduring importance and shifting associations of the hearth in our world.A hearth is many things: a place for solitude; a source of identity; something we make and share with others; a history of ourselves and our homes. It is the fixed center we return to. It is just as intrinsically portable. It is, in short, the perfect metaphor for what we seek in these complex and contradictory times—set in flux by climate change, mass immigration, the refugee crisis, and the dislocating effects of technology.Featuring original contributions from some of our most cherished voices—including Terry Tempest Williams, Bill McKibben, Pico Iyer, Natasha Trethewey, Luis Alberto Urrea, and Chigozie Obioma—Hearth suggests that empathy and storytelling hold the power to unite us when we have wandered alone for too long. This is an essential anthology that challenges us to redefine home and hearth: as a place to welcome strangers, to be generous, to care for the world beyond one’s own experience.
