Sex Education and Affective Education at Primary School

Is talking about sexual and emotional education in primary school useful for the growth of boys and girls? The author of this book invites teachers and educators to embrace this complex challenge, suggesting that they collect the questions, doubts and curiosities of the students in the classroom. Furthermore, the volume suggests a program that is divided into flexible modules, complete with in-depth analysis and methodological ideas.

This manual, designed for emotional and sexual education in primary school, is divided into two sections:

• In the first theoretical part we reflect on the opportunity of carrying out sexual education in primary school and, again, on how sexuality and affectivity present themselves on various occasions on the school stage.
• The second workshop part proposes a curricular project which is made up of 18 individual workshops, organized according to a logical and functional order.

Some of the topics addressed:

• Emotional bonds
• Your changing body
• Your relationship with your body
• Respect for oneself and others
• Being parents and being children
