I like Kenneth Merrell's series for medium to large groups, or class-wide, especially as a proactive program for a group of mixed identified and unidentified social needs:

Here's the grade 3-5 previous edition on Amazon:

This is Arnie Goldstein's classic, first developed with youth in detention centers. Tons of research on its effectiveness. The version for elementary would be appropriate:

Michelle Garcia Winner's highly-respected programs. Search by age/grade, and look for group curricula:

From the Committee for Children, this is also a classic:

Howie Knoff's Stop & Think:

Emotes is a slightly different approach, which emphasizes emotional language, and uses a collection of cartoon characters (a la "Inside Out"):
