Finally, a sound yet easy-to-use approach for helping students develop critical social skills. With the Teaching Social Skills program, you move beyond a cookbook approach to remediation and make a lasting difference in your students. Unlike other social skills programs that require you to make major changes in your curriculum and instruction, this program is easily infused into your daily instructional routines.
The manual explains the instructional strategies and offers practical advice on applying the approach to children with difficult behaviors. The social skills selected for inclusion in the program–for example, accepting consequences, listening, following directions, coping with conflict, accepting responsibility for one’s behavior, making friends–were identified by over 1,000 teachers as being the most needed.
