Class Discusssions for Teachers and Counsellors in Elementary Schools

This resource is a must for elementary school counsellors. It features 50 discussion formats dealing with issues such as separation/divorce, approaching adolescence, anger, fear, happiness, getting along with others, racial prejudice, and more. The authors use a three-phase approach (based on teh Egan model of explanation, understanding and action) to conducting discussions with elementary school children. In addition to the three steps, each activity includes an introduction on warm-up activities and a termination. This essential resource, while aimed primarily at elementary students, but can easily be adapted for other developmental levels.
