"We Can Work It Out" is a 5 week program for children in kindergarten through 2nd grade that focuses on ways of working out anger in a positive, non-violent way.

Through the use of children's literature, games, finger plays, songs, and role plays, children learn:

  • That everyone gets angry
  • That anger is okay
  • Skills for effective and safe conflict resolution

"Bullying and Teasing" helps children to answer the question: What can I do if I'm being bullied?

Through the use of children's literature, this 3 week program helps children understand the dynamics of bullying and teasing.

They explore:

  • What is bullying and teasing?
  • Why do people bully and tease?
  • How does it feel to be bullied and teased?
  • What you can do to help
New Beginnings' School Education Programs are activity and discussion based and aim to engage the students in construction of their own learning.
