Skillstreaming the Elementary School Child is a comprehensive guide designed to teach prosocial skills to children in grades K–6. Developed by Dr. Ellen McGinnis, this program employs a structured learning approach to replace aggressive or maladaptive behaviors with constructive alternatives. The core methodology involves modeling, role-playing, performance feedback, and transfer of training. The book serves as both a manual for group leaders and a curriculum, offering detailed lesson plans for 60 specific skills ranging from basic social interactions to complex conflict resolution.
