Target Audience :

Target Grades 3 through 6 (ages approximately 8–12). The entire curriculum explicitly references this developmental window throughout every chapter, case study, and worksheet. It is not suitable for younger grades (K–2) due to the advanced cognitive demands (second-order Theory of Mind, perspective-taking, restorative language frameworks) or middle-school-only (Grades 7+), as scenarios focus on upper-elementary social dynamics like recess exclusion, group projects, rumors, and sportsmanship.
