This review is from: Esteem Builders: A K-8 Self Esteem Curriculum for Improving Student Achievement, Behavior and School Climate, Second Edition (Paperback)

Don't be put off by the price because this book is worth its weight in gold. As a public school teacher, I refer to this book throughout the year, each and every year. We can't assume our children know what "teamwork", appropriate behavior or even "good sportmanship" is. We often need to provide explicit instruction and plenty of practice. This book offers literally hundreds of activities to teach those social and interpersonal skills many of our kids seem to lack. My classroom is a happy, welcoming, enjoyable oasis in the school thanks to Dr. Borba's book.
