In 30 years of teaching, I've never seen anything that deals as effectively with teaching the skills of coping with everyday conflict situations as the BeCool series.

BeCool Series
Upper Elementary

 

Students Will Learn to Think Through the Consequences of Their Behavior

BeCoolCreated expressly for learners functioning at the Upper Elementary Level, this 5-module program is the second in the BeCool series and continues the presentation of the BeCool paradigm of self-control and assertion training. This module uses real-life, everyday classic situations to model the effective use of assertive strategies, as well as the ineffective use of passive and aggressive styles in coping with difficult feelings and difficult people.



The Upper Elementary BeCool program is composed of five modules:

Module 1: Coping with Criticism

There's not always a clear difference between helpful criticism and destructive nagging. This module teaches kids how to distinguish between valid and invalid criticism and how to cope with each. Your students will watch three video peers respond to parent, teacher and peer criticism, some valid, some invalid. They'll also learn the dead-end consequences of a COLD (victim-like) or HOT (hot-head) reaction.

Includes:
· 1 DVD (with teacher-parent video) or 3 VHS tapes and one teacher-parent tape
· Teacher's guide

Module 1: $149
DVD Order No. 1042.1D
VHS Order No. 1042.1V

 


Module 2: Coping with Teasing

In this module, your students will watch Jason and George cope with the teasing of bystanders as they learn a new video arcade game, see Danny deal with the teasing his new glasses bring him, and learn from Amy how to use the 4-Step Plan to stop the hurtful teasing from her big brother. They'll also learn that a COLD or HOT response to teasing usually results in more teasing and loss of self-esteem.

Includes:
· 1 DVD (with teacher-parent video) or 3 VHS tapes and one teacher-parent tape
· Teacher's guide

Module 2: $149
DVD Order No. 1042.2D

Module 3: Coping with Bullying

In this module your students will see how Jason and George avoid being "bully magnets" by assuming an anti-victim demeanor, and see Jodi use the 4-Step Plan to counter bullying peer pressure of friends who want her to ditch school. They'll watch Willie fend off pressure to drink and see Brian "Talk the Talk" and "Walk the Walk" (go to authority) to retrieve his stolen backpack.

Includes:
· 1 DVD (with teacher-parent video) or 4 VHS tapes and one teacher-parent tape
· Teacher's guide

Module 3: $149
DVD Order No. 1042.3D

Others & Self

Additionally, they'll observe video modeling of the 4-Step Plan to express anger in a constructive and useful manner.

Each module includes:

· Teacher's guide
