Do social and behavioral problems interfere with learning in your classroom? Do you have students who struggle to focus their attention, wait their turn, control their feelings, or monitor their own work? If so, Jeanne Shub and Amy DeWeerd can show you how to help these students become Ready to Learn.

Shub and DeWeerd have created a program called Interplay that helps children develop self - control, social skills, and problem - solving strategies. It involves metaphorical adventures built around stories, role playing, and structured tasks.Ready to Learn describes the research - based principles and strategies of Interplay and contains seven units, each focused on a particular learning skill such as attention, problem solving or self - control. With Shub and DeWeerd's techniques you'll both help students become motivated and energized to engage in the work of school, and learn how to develop the academic and social readiness of individual students while building community within the classroom.

Whether your classroom includes special - education students, students with learning disabilities and social impairments, or just a few kids who need to refocus their energies, Ready to Learn offers strategies that can transform your classroom and effective ways to address children's social and behavioral needs. Ready to Learn will guide you in creating a cooperative classroom environment in which students take responsibility for their own behavior and respect each other's efforts.
