SOMETIMES FRIENDS MEAN TROUBLE

What if a "friend" asks you to do something you don’t want to do, something you know isn’t right, or something dangerous? Realistic anecdotes (with stopping points for discussion) show children countering such pressure by practicing effective strategies: say no, change the subject, walk away, or get help from an adult. A theme song advises, "do what’s true for you." The program comes with an extensive teacher’s guide (on disc) with a script and reproducible handouts. Grades 3–5. Color. 16 minutes. Sunburst. ©2004.
