Taking Charge of My Behavior Game:

The colorful game board contains spaces that each represent common settings such as "at home," "fun with others," "in class," "in the cafeteria," "on a field trip," "in a vehicle," "extra-curricular," "after-school job," and more. The teacher guide facilitates game play. As the student rolls the 1, 2, 3 die and lands on a setting, the student rolls the standard die to determine an area of focus within that setting. Each setting contains 3 questions for each behavior area. Several fun moves are also included on the game board.

Game includes: Teacher Guide with game play options plus 216 scenarios to meet the diverse needs and behaviors of individual students; 1,2,3 die and standard die for several optional plays; playing pieces; 2 wild cards; and 14 behavior cards.
