Description
Summary:The difference between being friends and being friendly is a skill necessary to help create friendly relationships. Effective interpersonal skills are crucial for children's social and emotional development, yet often we hope these will just develop, to be caught rather than taught. This book is based on the author's practical experience of running the programme in schools and is underpinned by research into the development of pro-social behaviour and friendship skills. The sessions raise awareness and understanding of the interpersonal skills including communicating and co-operating for friendship. The programme is intended for whole class work but would also be suitable for small groups. There are comprehensive facilitator's notes, all necessary resources, partner and group work, plenary and extensive ideas.--From publisher description.
