Restorative Practices in the Early Years - Visual Script and Cards A child's ability to successfully engage in a restorative approach develops in line with their ability to reason. 'The Visual Script' has been developed as a modified version of the original Restorative Practices Conference Script. It has been designed to support the following groups: - children in the early years (k-12)
- children with special needs (Austism Spectrum Disorder, language disorders)
- children who have experienced trauma
- children from generational poverty
- some boys
The Visual Script aims to support these groups by: - helping them to identify and express their feelings and thoughts, and understand those expressed by others (expressive and receptive language)
- providing them with a concrete aid to help them follow what may be an abstract process
- providing the facilitator with language that is brief, clear and concise
