Peacemaking Skills for Little Kids, Concept Book

PEACEMAKING SKILLS FOR LITTLE KIDS affirms the preciousness of life, the uniqueness of each person, & the interdependence of all living things. Through puppetry, role playing, singing, body movement, story telling, discussion, art, circle-activities, & nature walks, children are actively involved in learning about themselves, others, & how they are connected to the world around them. Activities help children to develop positive self-esteem, sensitivity to the needs of others, respect for human differences, love for the natural environment & ways to handle conflict nonviolently. PEACEMAKING SKILLS FOR LITTLE KIDS contains a curriculum complete with teacher's guide & children's activities, an excellent, annotated bibliography, "I-Care Cat" puppet, audio cassette with I-Care Cat's presentations & songs for children, & an "I-Care" classroom poster. "Invaluable! A MUST for every primary classroom. PEACEMAKING SKILLS FOR LITTLE KIDS is the best program that I've come across for children. The Introductions & Setting the Stage sections helped me create a nurturing classroom environment. The children just loved the visits by "I-Care Cat." My students have become more caring, responsible, & cooperative."--Joan Watson, Kindergarten, Miami, Florida. Peacemaking skills become an integral part of everything the children do.Schmidt, Fran is the author of 'Peacemaking Skills for Little Kids, Concept Book', published 1988 under ISBN 9781878227034 and ISBN 1878227033.
