Not worth your money by Johnnie B. Ward (arkansas) 1 Stars
September 22, 2009
I was excited about ordering this book due to wanting to have more social skills-bldg activities for my kids' groups. I suppose I didn't read the product description very well; all these activities are for pre-K to K and a little confusing at that. I am disappointed.

Not the best by christsl (USA) 2 Stars

I am an elementary school counselor and this book is not the best I've seen. Some of the activities are ok, but not worth the money.

Easy Activities for Building Social Skills by Maren Lee (Omaha, NE) 5 Stars
August 02, 2008
There are 19 different social skills lessons with blackline masters. The skills are taught in a variety of formats including direct teaching, discussion, hands-on activities, role-play, puppet play, games, poems and stories, visual aids, and songs. I love to use literature when I can, and this book referenced many picture books for each social skill! It's a fabulous find-I only wish I'd had it sooner!

Exactly what I needed by Sara C 4 Stars
September 28, 2007
This book offers direct lessons with worksheets, group activities, games, and book suggestions all to match each skill being taught in the lesson. It is a great component to any social skills class/group. I am using it for 2nd graders, so the preschool focus may be true for general education students, but for students with social needs, this is appropriate for older kids. Enjoy.

The Basics by Katie Lapp 4 Stars
August 23, 2007
I thought this was a good tool for use with ALL kids grades K-1, and the activities seemed fun. I was disappointed that it wasn't more clear that it was for such young classes. This isn't going to solve major problems, but it would certainly work to prevent some!
