Pre K-Grade 3. This newly revised curriculum provides step-by-step strategies and activities for teaching 33 social skills that are essential to children’s social development. Animal characters/puppets are used to introduce the skills and to help in various practice and maintenance activities.
Skill lessons are divided into six units:
- Making Conversation
- Communicating Feelings
- Expressing Oneself
- Cooperating with Peers
- Playing with Peers
- Responding to Aggression and Conflict
Each skill is divided into clearly defined behavioral steps that incorporate thinking, feeling, and doing. At each stage of instruction, students are given examples of appropriate skill use, asked questions to enhance their understanding of the skill, and provided with specific feedback as they practice the skill. Children are encouraged to apply their newly learned skills at school, at home, and on the playground. |
