Perhaps one of the most impactful behaviors in our early development is our choosing of friends.  The type of friends we choose provides insight into how we view ourselves and our lives.  This course examines how children form friendships at different elementary school ages and the effects those friendships have.  It also examines the social issues involved, and alerts the teacher to signs which show how friendships - or lack of them - effect the learning process.
