Therapeutic Interventions Using Non-Therapeutic Games: Behavior Basics for K-8 is a creative twist on the traditional practice of using games in therapy. This book takes games that everyone knows and loves and gives a concrete, hands-on example of behavioral strategies for children from kindergarten through the eighth grade. The sessions and activity pages can be used by anyone who is in the role of helping children determine appropriate behaviors.
The sections within this book are divided by the behavioral skill that is being taught, and the discussion topics provide a solid platform to base your session on. Also, a reproducible activity sheet is included at the end of each lesson.
