Here's what teachers who have used the lesson plans in their classrooms have to say about Tools for Teaching Social Skills in School:


The best thing about this book is that each lesson that is given is complete and foolproof. If you follow what to do the lesson is sure to be a big hit!

I truly loved these lessons. It was enjoyable because they were so easy to follow and truly effective with the students. It was very rewarding to see the students using these strategies.

I found many ideas that I am using, with different twists, some new ideas, and lots of new books to add to my library that will help my students deal with positive behaviors.

Sometimes, teachers think that they have no more solutions to problems, but this book provides new insightful ways to help students in need.
