Young adolescent chapterbook with activity guide

Jilly feels like an outcast. A misunderstood misfit. Can she find a way to fit in while still being true to herself? Independent readers and early high school students will relate to the challenges and joys that Jilly and her schoolmates experience in this timeless tale about facing your fears, making new friends, and avoiding those humiliating middle school screw-ups.

The activity guide, designed to accompany the Middle School Misfits: The Stained Glass Tree chapter book, includes over 20 activities for students in grades 5-9 on important topics addressed in the book. Sections are divided into lessons and activities surrounding:

1. A Healthy Self
2. Interacting with Others
3. Emotional Intelligence
4. Decision-making
5. Just for Fun.

Written by expert and former counsellor Leona Lugan, these activities help students dive deeper into topics like self-advocacy, healthy friendships, conflict resolution, self-control, understanding consequences, and many more!
