First Edition,
Use this workbook to introduce important social skills to students from 3rd to 12th grade.
Incorporate the suggested activities with your existing language arts, math, science, phys ed or social studies curriculum. Teach children social skills to give them positive behavioral choices; choices that are healthier for them, for you and for your classroom.
Lesson plans are written in an easy-to-follow format with talking points to help you define and explain a skill and guide students through an activity. Each lesson has Teacher Notes describing the relevance of each skill and a Proactive Teaching Interaction to use as a script. At the end of each lesson is a Think Sheet for students with questions about how to use a skill in different settings and situations.
Role-play scenarios and classroom activities also are provided so students can practice each skill's behavioral steps. This behavior management resource includes reproducible worksheets and skill posters you can hang in classrooms and common areas to remind students of each step to a skill.
"A majority of teachers (87 percent) believe SEL will be a major benefit in preparing students for the workforce. A similar majority (86 percent) believe developing students' ability to apply knowledge and skills to real-world situations should have a great deal of emphasis in school." -The Missing Piece: A Report for CASEL (Civic Enterprises, 2016)
