This book features role-plays as the foundation for each of its eight units. Each unit includes two to three lessons with time-saving ready-to-use reproducible role-plays. The lessons begin with teaching the targeted concept, and then offer a variety of reproducible scenarios which the students can role-play or discuss.

By helping Alex and Maddie find answers in a variety of different situations, students learn about:

• Trustworthiness (Honesty, stealing, cheating)
• Respect (The Golden Rule, displaying anger appropriately, manners)
• Responsibility (Consequences, self discipline/self control, doing one's best)
• Being Fair (Following rules, listening, keeping an open mind)
• Caring (Kindness, helping others, forgiveness)
• Perseverance (Sticking with a job, not giving up)
• Citizenship (Respect for the flag, taking care of the environment, helping your neighbors)
• Volunteerism (Meaning of volunteerism, how students can help)

In addition to step-by-step lesson plans and ready-to-use role-plays with discussion questions, reproducible activity sheets are also included. Take advantage of this user-friendly program and let your students learn how to react to puzzling everyday situations.
