Abstract
The purpose of this study was to measure the effect that intensive social-skills training, peer monitoring and role modeling has on elementary students’ prosocial behavior. Twelve students in grades 3 – 5 served as participants in this intervention. Participants first received social-skills instruction, peer modeled during classroom skits, and peer monitored at recess while dispersing coupons to children demonstrating positive social-skills. Increases in positive social behavior in the classroom were found across all grade level participants.
