THE FULL VALUE SCHOOL

Social-emotional learning works best when it’s woven into the fabric of your school – not bolted on as an afterthought. The Full Value School gives you a comprehensive, practical system for creating a classroom culture where students feel safe, valued and empowered to participate. It explains why the approach works, backed by research, and gives you everything you need to put it into practice.

What’s Inside

• Hundreds of fun, experiential activities designed to teach key SEL concepts, including self-awareness, empathy, communication and responsible decision-making
• A clear framework for building a safe, affirming culture and climate in your classroom, school or community setting
• A simple group processing model that facilitates respectful dialogue, appropriate sharing of feelings and positive problem-solving
• Tools that empower students to develop an influential voice that is valued by their peers

This isn’t just a book of activities – it’s a complete system for transforming how your students relate to one another and to learning itself.

Who It’s For
