Teacher’s guide to the Magnificent Mei and Friends Comic Series

Overview

The second edition of the Teacher’s Guide was developed as part of the WHO-UNICEF Helping Adolescents Thrive initiative. It is designed to be used alongside the Comic Story of Magnificent Mei and Friends. By promoting social and emotional learning and skills practice, the story and Teacher’s Guide aim to help promote psychosocial well-being, prevent mental health conditions, and reduce risky behaviours in adolescents. The Teacher’s Guide is for use by professionals in educational settings who work with adolescents aged 10-14 years, including teachers, school counsellors, and mental health professionals, such as psychologists, occupational therapists, and social workers. The Guide can be used for planning and facilitation of classroom activities focused on socio-emotional learning.
