This unique Library gives teachers and specialists a stimulating, systematic way to develop positive social behaviors in students of all abilities, grades 4-12. Included are over 125 tested lessons and reproducible worksheets in two separately printed, self-contained volumes, each tailored to the developmental needs of students at a particular grade level, 4-6 or 7-12. For easy use, the lessons in each volume follow a uniform format, including titles, behavioral objective, and simple 8-step lesson plan. The lesson activities and worksheets are based on real-life situations and help build students' self-esteem, self-control, and respect for the rights of others.

I have used this book often in my social skills group for 6th graders. It is a good starting point but some of the material needs to be adjusted to be used with these students or simply to be more entertaining. I tend to use the information to introduce a topic, then use an activity or game, and then will use the reproducible worksheets as a review/post-test.

This has been an EXCELLENT book for me. I would say that I get 3/5 lessons for the week out of this book. The skill steps are listed out and easy for the students to follow and the independent practice is fun for the students.

These social skills' lessons are much better suited to the level of junior high or even lower. My high school students did not respond to these activities and thus the title's suggestion (grade 7-12) is misleading. I will not try these activities again with my grade nine students.

This book has been a life-saver for me as a new school counselor. It addresses many social skills issues which need to be addressed in the elementary school setting. It includes everything from how to make and keep friends, to anger, self-control and everything in between. Really a great resource!!

This is a hands-on approach to teaching kids social skills. It has all those great lessons I never can think of when the time is right.
All papers and materials are easy to use and the activities are worth investing the time in.
