Peacemaking Skills for Little Kids/Book, Cassette, Puppet and Poster

PEACEMAKING SKILLS FOR LITTLE KIDS, 2nd ed., affirms the preciousness of life, the uniqueness of each person, & the interdependence of all living things. Through puppetry, role playing, singing, body movement, storytelling, 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 non-violently. Peacemaking skills become an integral part of everything children do in the primary classroom. 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/Book, Cassette, Puppet and Poster' with ISBN 9781878227164 and ISBN 1878227165.
