Intermediate Elementary Grades

A universal school-based program designed to enhance the interpersonal cognitive processes and problem-solving skills of children in preschool to grade 6. ICPS is proven to prevent and reduce early high-risk behaviors such as impulsivity and social withdrawal and to promote prosocial behaviors such as concern for others and positive peer relationships.

Your Child in School offers the most complete and dramatic portrait ever presented of a child's life in school, hour by hour through the day, subject by subject through the curriculum, grade by grade through the entire school experience.

This innovative text teaches elementary school students the techniques of critical thinking and problem solving and applies those methods to mathematical word problems. It supplements traditional fourth, fifth, and sixth grade textbooks and increases students' thinking and problem solving abilities. Students are taught the fundamentals of these processes by applying them both to simple and multi-step problems which are provided. These problems -- many written by elementary school pupils --gradually increase in difficulty, making learning both fun and stimulating. Special attention is given to typical errors and sources of conceptual difficulty.

Excerpt from Language Lessons: Intermediate Grades In publishing, under the general title of Progressive Studies in English, a series of volumes intended for.use in American grade and high schools, the authors desire to say that it has been their aim to furnish-manuals of grammar and composition that shall prove eminently practical and helpful from the point of view of both teacher and pupil. There IS still such great variety of opinions among teachers of these subjects that no writer of text-books can hope to please all classes. The views of the authors of these books must be described in gen eral as conservative; they have adopted, however, with gratitude, the best suggestions of recent writers on the teaching of language regardless of schools of thought. It is believed that these books will be found to provide a minimum of theory with the maximum amount of practice, based on models of acknowledged excellence. It has been deemed wise to gather further discussion of purpose and method in language in the elementary grades into a small pamphlet, which the publishers will take pleasure in sending to all teachers interested.
