ALL ABOUT FRIENDS Book Companion
As both a classroom teacher and now a homeschool mom, I can tell you one of the most important things we can teach our children is social skills and how to get along with others.
It doesn’t matter what kind of book knowledge they have, if they do not know how to relate to others and monitor their own feelings.
I absolutely love this book because it goes in depth with so many topics regarding friendship, ow to get along with others even strategies to deal with conflict.
I have an entire blog post and unit about friendship HERE, but I love using this book and this free book companion to teach my children foundational social skills.
The book starts with what are friends, why do we need friends, what makes a good friend and who can be friends. It then even gives children ideas and picture examples of how to make friends.
There is so much information in this book, that while we are using it I read one page a day and have my children fill out one page in their coordinating mini book.
I made this book companion printable to match this All About Friends book perfectly! Just staple the pages in order and you’re set to teach so many social skills.
Students trace words and sentences, fill in the blanks, color pictures and expand their ideas on each activity page in their mini book.
It is the perfect book companion activity to solidify their understanding of what it means to be a good friend, how to make new friends and how to keep friends.
