Why publish a practical guide to sexuality education in primary schools? Quite simply because sexuality education is essential to children's development, and it's important to become more comfortable teaching it. And above all, because we all care about the well-being of children and the development of tomorrow's citizens!
This guide is aimed primarily at teachers, but also at anyone with an interest in the subject.
It covers the child's stages of development, the content to be taught, ideas for concrete activities, children's literature, the development of fluency in the person teaching this content, and various approaches to intervention.
You'll also find suggestions for linking sexuality education content to that of the Culture et citoyenneté québécoise program. This reference book covers all primary school levels, including preschool.
This book also highlights the use of children's literature as a lever for learning about sexuality. Indeed, several children's books are proposed, some of which are explored in greater detail in this book to enrich your ideas for activities in a fun way that reaches out to young people.
The aim is to equip you to answer your students' questions while guiding you in your interventions. It will also enable you to develop your knowledge and increase your fluency.
Wishing you, our dear readers, a lot of reading pleasure!
