6-9세를 위한 초등 문학을 활용한 지속적인 사회-정서적 기술 수업

This ongoing course focuses on learning the essential social-emotional skills necessary for primary-aged students to be successful in society.  
Each week will focus on various skills using primary literature as the focus point.  Although each week will have a different area of interest, every lesson will contain the following key elements: first, the class will share "good things"; second, I will introduce the topic and the book and lead a short discussion regarding the vocabulary used in the book.  
The discussion will be followed by the main portion of the lesson: reading the book and learning about the day's focus skill.  
Last, students will participate in a culminating activity focused on review and practice.   
I teach with the expectation of a high ratio of student-teacher interaction and a brisk pace.  Each lesson focuses on developing a social skill which should be practiced in a group of accepting members.  The lesson will include slides, teacher-led activities and discussion. 
The following lessons will be taught September, October and November:
