There is pressure to do drugs, to date, to get into college. You’ll be amazed at what your students will share after watching the Connect with Kids Social & Emotional Classroom videos. The videos feature real kids that your students can relate to, telling their stories about being bullied, drinking and driving, chatting with strangers on the Internet, taking drugs, dating, and more.
When you purchase the Social & Emotional Collection, you’ll receive eight videos about today’s most pressing youth issues. Each video comes with a correlating Resource Guide with lesson plans, student activities, tips for parents, facts and resources.
