From the supplier: One teacher describes the methods in which preschoolers are taught concepts regarding peer relationships. The thematic unit uses children's literature that illustrates and depicts situations such as object conflict, sharing, cooperation, causal thinking, empathy and friendships. The books are first read aloud to the class and then each situation is discussed in relation to the concept being illustrated. Additional activities that further emphasize peer-related skills are given to the students.
