I have been looking for a good book to read to our first graders that shows how words can help or hurt. I am going to use Diane de Groat's book because I think gets across the message clearly. For the older students, I am going to point out that it is usually NOT a good idea to start a sentence with "No offense." For the second and third graders I am doing a version of the lesson on mean words wrinkle hearts.
