The 5 Needs: We All Have Needs
This workbook is written for older elementary children. The workbook can be used in small groups or individually. Children learn what they need and how to get that need met without any difficulty. Often at this age children will ask the leader to “please teach this to my Mom” and hopes to learn to communicate what is discovered. Bullying can be stopped faster when children understand the need for power, and how to effectively meet that need. Children in this age group often “get it” with delight and practice using the language of the 5 needs in class and on the playground.
