Worth the purchase Out of 104 activities I found about a dozen to use for a social skills group with 3rd, 4th, 6th and 7th graders. You may not want to use ONLY this book to plan a group, but it has provided some very good ideas to incorporate into my groups.
great buy I am so glad I bought this book, I can't wait to try these new ideas with my kids so I can excite them into learning.
Great Activities! This is the best book, filled with fun activities to use in therapeutic groups! I ordered another one because someone took my original copy and I can't live without it.
One Math Teacher who Needed Some Ideas...got them! Sometimes, like before long school breaks, i want to plan an activity for the kids that is fun and helps them learn a little more about themselves and/or each other. This book has lots of great ideas divided by category (very helpful); i'm planning to try several of them in the next schoolyear (2008-09). Also, some of the games can be adapted to serve instructional purposes; a bonus!
Great Resource! I found this book to have some great ideas for group activities that introduce and teach social/emotional skills. As a social worker in a junior high school, I have implemented many of these activites into my daily activities. Highly recommended for teachers, counselors, social workers, etc.
