| 9781575421308 | Know and Follow Rules | Meiners M.Ed., Cheri J., Meiners, Cheri J. | A child who can’t follow rules is a child who’s always in trouble. This book starts with simple reasons why we have rules: to help us stay safe, learn, be fair, and get along. Then it presents just four basic rules: “Listen,” “Best Work,” “Hands and Body to Myself,” and “Please and Thank You.” The focus throughout is on the positive sense of pride that comes with learning to follow rules. Includes questions and activities adults can use to reinforce the ideas and skills being taught.Meredith Kiger, Ph.D. - Children's LiteratureOne in a series of books designed to teach social skills to young students, this edition focuses on the purpose for and value of following school rules. Illustrated in crisp primary colors that portray diverse children in a variety of social situations, the book stresses the importance of rules in promoting the mental, physical and social well-being of young children. While the word respect is frequently used in the book, it is never truly defined as treating others the way you want to be treated which results in a somewhat dogmatic tone to the text. For teachers, there are pages of activities and interactive games to further extend the message of the book. Overall, it is a child-friendly method for reinforcing the all important social skills on which schools are having to spend increasing amounts of time. 2005, Free Spirit Publishing, Ages 4 to 7. | Free Spirit Publishing |
