Summary

This newly revised book is divided into five skill groups: classroom survival skills, friendship-making skills, dealing with feelings, alternatives to aggression, and dealing with stress.

Within these skill groups the authors provide strategies for teaching 60 specific prosocial skills, such as asking for help, saying thank you, accepting consequences, using self-control, making a complaint, and dealing with group pressure.

Appendices contain program evaluation forms and a 42-page annotated bibliography of Skillstreaming research.
