Some children have already mastered handling disappointment and working out differences with others, but many children struggle with the social skills that are expected of them. To help students of all skill levels, the author of the highly praised Ready-To-Use Violence Prevention Skills Lessons & Activities for Elementary Students presents this practical book that gives teachers and specialists a stimulating, systematic way to develop positive social behaviors in students through awareness, discussion, and rehearsing new behaviors. It offers over 50 detailed lesson plans and practice worksheets based on real-life situations. These age-appropriate lessons help children build self-esteem, self-control, respect for the rights of others, and a sense of responsibility for one's own actions. Printed in a spiral-bound 8 1/4" x 11" format, the pages can be easily photocopied for use by the whole class or for individuals as the need to work on a particular skill arises. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - quick and easy!I love all of the ready to use social skill books. I am a school social worker for prek-8 school district, so as busy as I am, I love that these activities are right there with little preparation! My only complaint is that these books used to be spiral-bound which makes it easier to photocopy activities. They are not spiral-bound anymore, but either way great purchase for school social workers and counselors! Rating: - Good book for use with teachers.This book contains lesson formating and steps to follow when teaching. Some of the lessons would be better tailored for a small to medium sized group. Many of the lessons include a story to use to teach the students the social lesson. Rating:  - not sure about carryoverthis is an old-time structured lesson set, with slogans and (I thnk) dumb activities and artwork. I don't find it very helpful, especially for individual work. I can't imagine it does much more than nominally meet some requirement for addressing social skills for a whole-class presentation. You get what you pay for. Rating: - impromptu lesson planning bonusThis book has easily accessible lesson plans that develops useful social skills. It also serves incredibly well for impromptu lesson plans which can be expanded in other creative ways. good also for an advisory or with students struggling in terms of behavior within the school system. Rating: - Ready-to-Use Social Skills Lessons & Activities for Grades 7-12I love this book; It really encourages creative thinking and is a must for group work with adolescents. I highly recommend it!!!
