The series includes four DVDs and four corresponding books, one for each of the core curriculum areas: Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. Use powerful Kagan Structures to reach high academic standards for a diverse student population while simultaneously developing thinking skills, communication skills, teamwork skills, and diversity skills. This series is an extraordinarily comprehensive presentation of proven Kagan Structures. The DVDs demonstrate the structures in action across the curriculum in a range of elementary school classrooms. The Teacher Guides highlight the structures previewed in the DVDs and include step-by-step directions, special adaptations for special populations, and literally hundreds of activity ideas for using the structures to reach the standards. This series is the ideal roadmap for teachers who want concrete, step-by-step instructional strategies proven to successfully respond to the challenge of creating high achievement for all learners. Also an excellent resource for instructional leaders seeking to develop teachers' competency in Kagan Structures and to lead Structure-A-Month Clubs. Use Kagan Structures to truly "leave no child behind." Guides approximately 180–200 pages; DVDs approximately 30 minutes.
