This engaging book of 60 reproducible activities is just what you need to teach your students how to maintain healthy relationships - at school, in the home, on the job, and in the community. Revised and updated to more accurately reflect the issues today's teenagers face, these activities help students to develop the empathy, analysis, and problem-solving skills necessary for getting along with people in different situations. Each reproducible worksheet presents a brief scenario that dramatizes a relationship problem, from overcoming self-consciousness and seeing through stereotypes to honoring job commitments. Exercises and review questions help students to identify and relate their own experiences to the problem. Students then work independently, in pairs, or as a group to discuss and develop possible solutions. New to this edition, a teacher introduction opens each section, offering helpful background information, including tips and strategies on how to improve students' existing relationships. 80 pages. Grades 5-8. |
