ABSTRACT

First Published in 1998. This book is about the development of children's social behaviour, about their abilities to engage in social interactions and to form social relationships. More specifically, it is about the development of good and bad, or prosocial and antisocial behaviours. Its aim is to contribute to children's social education by providing teachers with a set of classroom tasks and activities which will foster children's prosocial behaviour by encouraging them, on a regular basis, to discuss interpersonal feelings and behaviours, and to consider the feelings and points of view of other children.
