Tell staff three things
- It's quick: two minutes to set up, one ten-minute Adventure a week, a two-minute practice each day and a five-minute check-in.
- It's anonymous: children choose a face and a word. Nothing is recorded against their names.
- Start Monday: begin with Adventure 1. No need to wait for everyone.
Next week: check that classes have started. If not, a quick reminder to enter the class code is often all that's needed.
Want a staff introduction?
Louise can run a 20-minute introductory session for your team. Most schools start without one. Email hello@discoverbloom.co.uk to arrange it.
Get started in seven steps
Open your setup link
Use the link your headteacher sent you. Enter your name, class and email. Your class code appears on screen and arrives by email.
No password or account needed.
Enter your class code
On your whiteboard and each class tablet, go to class.discoverbloom.co.uk/code
Enter your code once. Capitals and hyphens don't matter. Devices stay signed in, although you may need to re-enter the code after a holiday.
Monday: watch Adventure 1
Tap Adventures and play Adventure 1 on the whiteboard. Watch Fox and friends introduce a new emotional skill. Pause to talk about it if you like.
One ten-minute Adventure a week. A new one unlocks every Monday.
Every day: Daily Practice
This is the most important part of the whole programme. It's the consistent, everyday practice that helps children develop the skills to regulate their emotions and bodies.
Tap Daily Practice. Spend two minutes practising this week's skill together. It might be breathing, humming or movement.
Tick it off when you're done. After break or lunch is often a good time.
Every morning: Check-in
Tap Check-in and enter how many children are present. Choose Whiteboard or Pass the tablet.
Each child taps a face and a word to show how they're feeling.
Tap Finish check-ins to see your class as a meadow of foxes, grouped by feeling.
Around five minutes for a full class.
See how your class is doing
Tap See class wellbeing to view the week's feelings or revisit any day's meadow. You'll see how many children chose each feeling, never who. Nothing is stored against a child's name.
Want to ask something else? On the check-in start screen, tap Ask something else to type your own question for the class.
Forgotten your code?
Go to class.discoverbloom.co.uk/code and tap Forgotten your code? under the code box. Enter your email and we'll send the code to you. You can also ask the school office.
