About this resource
The Social Emotional Learning Unit: Cooperation Activities is a 12-page resource full of ideas, lessons and printables to teach students about cooperation. You will receive a handout that includes teaching points, read-alouds, videos and extra activities. There is a letter to caregivers to support cooperation at home. After learning about cooperation, students will get to write about what they've learned and practice their reading skills with the emergent reader.
