There are some talented elementary counselors in the world. This book is a celebration of those counselors and what they have shared as their “favorite counseling activity.” Simply put, a collection of those activities they felt the best about. Many of these are school-wide activities, others are for classroom-size groups. Some work best with small groups. Many revolve around children’s books. The inclusion here was determined solely by the editor’s intuition. Which was influenced greatly by the excitement and images conveyed as they described their “favorite counseling activity.” [7" x 8.5"...148 pages]
