Education

Use these fun ideas to help your students succeed in the classroom and beyond when they learn to accept positive and negative feedback the right way. Students in grades K-6 will enjoy the activities they learn and practice the steps to accepting positive feedback (compliments) and negative feedback (criticism).

Author Julia Cook provides educators with creative ideas that will keep students engaged and learning. Activities range from using crafts to provide compliments, safe ways to provide negative feedback, self-evaluation, games, and of course opportunities to get students up and out of their seats! The activity book offers teachers ideas on how to blend some of these lessons within their academic teaching, and even ideas for how students can practice at home! Instructions, list of materials, and activity sheets are provided. Reward templates (colour and black and white versions) can be used to recognize students who use the skills correctly. Reproducible activity sheets and coupons are included on the enclosed CD-ROM.
