About this title

Synopsis

 

Shub and DeWeerd have created a program called Interplay that helps children develop self—control, social skills, and problem—solving strategies. It involves metaphorical adventures built around stories, role playing, and structured tasks. Ready to Learn describes the research—based principles and strategies of Interplay and contains seven units, each focused on a particular learning skill such as attention, problem solving or self—control. With Shub and DeWeerd’s techniques you’ll both help students become motivated and energized to engage in the work of school, and learn how to develop the academic and social readiness of individual students while building community within the classroom.
