"The Good Behavior Game"
Native Directions is a proud supporter of the Good Behavior Game. This simple elementary school game can be adapted to any school classroom with little or no cost and can amazingly change the future. This is no glib or exaggerated statement, there is overwhelming scientific evidence that this game can immediately reduce problematic behaviors and it shows several long term benefits such as reductions in prison populations.
We encourage all educators and anyone who cares about children or the future of our society to learn more about this pogram.
This extremely well documented and studied program not only can help reduce problematic classroom behaviors immediately, but it also has also been shown to have tremendous long term results. Studies show that this program greatly reduces later behaviors such as smoking, drug & alchohol use, and it has been shown to reduce prison incarceration rates for those who participated in the program in their elmentary years. It has been shown to greatly help those with ADD/ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, Conduct Disorder, Antisocial Personality Disorder, and many other mental illnesses.
