Teamwork Isn't My Thing, and I Don't Like to Share!: Activity Guide for Teachers (Best Me I Can Be!)

Former teacher and school counselor Julia Cook has created entertaining games and engaging activities (using everything from jigsaw puzzles and beach balls to spaghetti and marshmallows) that teach students in grades K-6 the social skills of working as a team and sharing. This guide offers everything teachers need: instructions, lists of materials when needed, activity sheets, homework ideas, and suggestions on variations and extensions. A CD includes all of the reproducible pages including reward coupons in full color that can be used to recognize students who master and use the skills appropriately. Any teacher with students who squabble when they need to share or who have trouble working together, can use the creative ideas in this book to bring more cooperation and caring to the classroom.
