- a fully scripted manual;
- workbooks;
- DVD - 8 animated video clips that use the likable character Okki the Octopus to help students reflect and relate to different situations;
- story books;
- posters, feelings cards, needs cards, games, and puzzles;
- the KooLKIDS website;
- a variety of activity sheets and work stations that develop a team approach; and
