Description: These one-page, picture-supported social lessons help teens understand and express feelings and deal with aggression and other special problems. The book has 40 ready-to-use lessons. Customize the lessons by adding student-specific information, editing the text, and using a photograph in place of the generic picture in the book. Each sentence in the lesson is supported by one or more pictures. There are instructional and behavioral lessons. The instructional lessons are intended to teach adolescents what they need to do or say in social situations that are sometimes overwhelming (e.g., Feeling Angry). Use these instructional lessons as part of a social skills curriculum with small groups. The behavioral lessons target specific social problems that need to be stopped (e.g., Running Away).
