'What Else Can I Do With You?' - Helping Children Improve Classroom Behaviour
A teaching pack containing ideas for teachers to tackle the problem of low level disruptive behaviour by children in class. These worksheets and activities have been devised to help teachers work with primary school children who persistently create disruption.
These worksheets and activities are for use with children who create low level disruption in the classroom. By encouraging young people to think about their behaviour and the effect of their actions in a constructively critical way, this resource offers a welcome alternative to sanctions and punishment. This edition has been revised and now includes a session record sheet and more than 20 new activities. It also now focuses on interpersonal relationships, attention seeking and positive behaviours.
The worksheets are split into two types:
" Problem specific worksheets - designed to cover annoying everyday problems such as shouting out and name calling
" Target sheets - designed to support youngsters who need help to complete a number of tasks over part of a day or longer This resource is suitable for staff working with primary and middle school aged children in settings such as schools, learning support units, play-schemes, before and after school clubs and mentoring groups.

Successful trading, speculating or simply making informed decisions about financial markets means it is essential to have a firm grasp of economics. Financial market behaviour revolves around economic concepts, however the majority of economic textbooks do not tell the full story.
To fully understand the behaviour of financial markets it is essential to have a model that enables new information to be absorbed and analysed with some predictive implications. That model is provided by the business cycle.
'Economics for Financial Markets' takes the reader from the basics of financial market valuation to a more sophisticated understanding of the actions that traders take which ultimately drives the volatility in the financial markets.
The author shows traders, investment managers, risk managers and finance professionals how to distil the flow of information and show what needs to be concentrated on, covering topics such as:
* Why are financial markets subject to economic fashions?
* How has the New Economy changed financial market behaviour?
* Does the creation of the euro fundamentally change the behaviour of the currency markets?
Shows how to distil the vast amount of information in financial markets and identify what is important
Demonstrates how the "New Economy" had changed financial market behaviour
Explains how to follow the behaviour of central banks
In short, psychology overlaps with many other areas of study or even areas of life and work. Perhaps in part because of this, a defi nition has proved diffi cult for more than 100 years. Nowadays, it is usually defi ned as: the scientific study of behaviour and mental processes. Some years ago, behavioural purists wanted the defi nition to embrace only behaviour, but the vacuity of that was eventually realised. There is clearly more to the human condition than behaviour. Also, the word psyche has an interesting background; it is a mixture of mind, spirit and, originally, even air (the other sense of spirit).
