300

What does evidence-based program mean?

Program development is shaped by relevant research and theory. To determine a program's effectiveness, outcome evaluations are necessary.  Too Good programs have undergone rigorous evaluation in random control group studies to prove their effectiveness.

Setting Reachable Goals ~ Making Responsible Decisions ~ Identifying and Managing Emotions ~ Effective Communication ~ Bonding and Relationships

500

Why are the interactive learning activities so important?

Interactive, hands-on learning experiences (e.g. role plays, games, small group activities, etc.) effectively teach children social emotional and other life skills (e.g., peer resistance skills, healthy bonding, etc.) more than non-interactive methods such as lecture and discussion. Interactive teaching methods provide students opportunities to develop, use, and practice these skills. The Too Good programs are designed with varied learning experiences to accommodate how students learn best the essential life skills.

Preparing to Teach

100

Rationale ~ Character Education Traits ~ Objectives ~ Activities with suggested times ~ Materials Needed ~ Before You Start

400

Why is the Before You Start section important?

Will tell you anything you need to prep for the lesson and any special instructions. If you need to make copies of something, hang something up, review and prep game materials or any other necessary prep for the success of the lesson.

500

Name two things you can do if you are short on time and why those are good options.

Possible answers:

• For activities with three to four scenarios, have the students complete one or two scenarios. Implement an activity as class rather than in partners or small groups. If an activity calls for independent student reading, read the scenario(s) to the class. Have the students discuss answers rather than write them down in workbook. If time loss was a portion of a lesson, make up the activity the following day. If time loss was an entire day or several, teach two lessons per week with time in between the teaching days.
