Respecting Others

(4) K-3 Positive Steps series. This series presents social skills and basic ethical concepts geared toward early-elementary-school-aged readers. Some explanations are age-appropriate, but others oversimplify problems ("racism is against the law"). Activity suggestions like "practice saying sorry" may seem babyish to readers. The flat illustrations (including speech bubbles) are less effective than the photographs in supporting concepts. Websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Positive Steps titles: Being Honest, Caring for Others, Dealing with Bullying, Dealing with Differences, Respecting Others, and Understanding Feelings.
