Building upon Thinking About YOU Thinking About ME, the book sequences through eight chapters and 69 lessons that help students start to explore the basics of working and thinking in a group. Each chapter addresses how to use and interpret language (verbal and non-verbal) to further understand the communicative context. The range of lessons spans from kindergarten through adulthood. Users are encouraged to modify some activities to better fit the age of the students.
