Skillstreaming the Elementary School Child Set

Series Description

New Strategies and Perspectives for Teaching Prosocial Skills

Skillstreaming addresses the social skill needs of students who display aggression, immaturity, withdrawal, or other problem behaviors. This book offers the most up-to-date information for implementing the Skillstreaming approach, which utilizes modeling, role playing, performance feedback, and transfer (homework). Students develop competence in dealing with interpersonal conflicts and learn to use self-control.

The curriculum contains 60 skill lessons and includes five skill groups:

• Classroom Survival Skills
• Friendship-Making Skills
• Dealing with Feelings
• Alternatives to Aggression
• Dealing with Stress.

The student manual is a clear, concise guide for students that serves as a handy reference and organizer.

The program forms are a collection of reproducible assessment forms, checklists, and student handouts. The skill cards are designed for student use during group sessions and homework assignments.

The cards list the behavioural steps for each of the 60 skills contained in the book, with 8 cards for each skill.
