Choosing ESTEEM
Choosing the right curriculum for your school or community organization is a challenging job.
We make it easier by giving you actual sample pages from the 10 lessons covered in the ESTEEM workbooks.
Click on a grade level below and flip through the age appropriate samples:
Each workbook contains 10 lessons that can be taught by a trained teacher in 45 to 90 minutes. Many of our school districts opt to teach one lesson every Friday for 10 weeks in a row while others facilitate the program over 10 consecutive school days.
To receive a physical sample, please fill out our online Sample Order Form.
You may also contact us to request a presentation, conference call or web demonstration with our staff.
