This resource is one of four books in the Social Skills Curriculum
Activities Library, a practical series designed to help classroom
teachers and specialists teach appropriate behavioral skills to
students of all abilities, preschool through grade 12. The
activities emphasize teaching young people to recognize the equal
rights of others, independent of color, race, and religion, and
develop their skill in using good judgment to resolve life's
conflicts peacefully.
The complete Social Skills Curriculum Library provides over 250
classroom-tested lessons and activities in four distinct units,
each tailored to the developmental needs of students at a
particular grade level:

For easy use, the activities in each grade-level unit follow a
uniform format, including a descriptive title, a specific
behavioral objective, and a simple eighth-step lesson plan that
provides everything needed for an effective, well-balanced learning
experience.
Each lesson covers:

Each unit also includes an introduction to the curriculum and
lesson format ... brief guidelines ... To the Teacher... for using
the activities most effectively ... reproducible Task Review Cards

positive social behaviors in their students. The activities focus

classroom or school-wide program, and can be easily enhanced with
