TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Keepin' It Cool in Counseling says, “My students LOVE this book and it was the perfect activity to discuss respect (one of our school character pillars) which can be so abstract for students!"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Teaching with Love and Excellence says, "These resources were a hit with my kinders. They were a good support to my class conversations about manners. There was enough to last for my SEL time for the whole week! There was too much writing for my kinders at the beginning of the year, but I could easily adapt it since the pages had no directions and multiple options."
